Don't Chicken Out!

On June 11th and July 8th, men from Prince of Peace (PoPLC) met for meetings as the Men’s Ministry Action Team (MAT) to explore the vision, purpose, and functions of this newly formed group. The aim of these meetings was to brainstorm strategies for engaging and uniting men for service, fellowship, and outreach.

Establishing this MAT provides a structured advisory and decision-making body that represents all men at PoPLC, and spearheads initiatives focused on spiritual growth, fellowship, outreach, and service, meshing directly into the PoPLC vision statement, and establishing a gateway to connect men with one another and with other POPLC ministries. The MAT supports all men in becoming better disciples of Christ and to encourage their active involvement as servants of God’s Church and our community.

Our next meeting is planned for Tuesday evening, 5 August. For more information on the Men’s MAT, please contact Aivars Baumanis or Dave Shaddrix.

Vacation Bible School is quickly approaching and we need YOUR help! Volunteer spots are filling up, but even if you can't volunteer at VBS, there are other ways to be a part of this special week! Are you able to help in any of the following ways?

Did someone say Pool Party? All Youth in Grades 7 through 12 are invited to join us at the Rolling Hills Swim Club on Wednesday, July 16th from 5pm to 8pm. Pizza and soda will be provided. Please bring $5 per person and don't forget a towel! Alex Lillis

Join us at our Women's Summer Bible Study where we will be diving into the Psalms and connect them to various Bible Stories. We understand that summer time can be busy. We would love for you to join us for as many as you are able! Sessions are stand-alone and are easy to pick up or do on your own if you miss. Invite a friend! Books are $20. Cash or checks can be made out to Visual Faith Ministry. You are welcome to drop off payment to Sara in the office.

Questions? Email: Sara.Wilson@poplc.org

We need persons with an interest in building a strong diverse community in our Prince of Peace neighborhood. Our ESL program, which runs from September to May, needs people who enjoy interacting with people of various cultures who are anxious to learn the English language in their new home in Northern VA. The teaching commitment is for one day a week for two hours and requires no special teaching experience. This is a "Serve the World" opportunity for you in the Prince of Peace community!!

If you have an interest or just have questions about how you can be involved, send a note to ESL@poplc.org or call the Prince of Peace ESL Coordinator, Mark Rumohr, at 703-776-0947.  Can’t wait to hear from you!

Donate Your Used Books

You will notice the big green book donation bin in the front parking lot facing Old Keene Mill. Your books will be put back into circulation and the proceeds of the sale will go to help finance the youth trips this Summer. What a great way to share those books that you have loved and bless others with them again.
