January Evening Prayer (Vespers)

Come Away and Rest a While on

Wednesday, January 15 at

6:30 p.m.


Life’s preoccupations are relentless in pursuing our total attention. But in every circumstance, God’s presence is assured and is nearer to us than our own breath. Amidst the static, in silence, God’s speaks to us, calming our hearts, granting us peace. So, come away and rest a while with Evening Prayer and be reminded that the only thing that can name you is God’s love."

Baptism at Prince of Peace

In the church, we love to have a reason for a big celebration. And lucky for us, we have a lot of

reasons to celebrate! Every Sunday is its own celebration of Christ’s resurrection, but baptisms

and festival days give us other occasions too.


Sunday, January 12 is our celebration of the Baptism of our Lord and happens to be a baptismal festival day. We’re blessed to have a baptism scheduled on that day this year, but other baptismal festival days await us: Easter, the Day of Pentecost, and All Saints’ Sunday.


If you are interested in baptism for yourself, for your child, or desire to affirm your faith, please contact

Rev. Michael Anderson (pastor@princeofpeacebrookfield.org) to begin a conversation about

this important sacrament of the church, sign of the Holy Spirit, and marker of belonging in faith

community.

Adult Forum for the

Sundays after Epiphany

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. (John 1:5) Light is a prominent theme for Epiphany and the Sundays that follow it that serves as a metaphor for what God is doing in and through Jesus. Join Rev. Michael for a four week study exploring the theme of light and how Christ’s birth affects our faith long after Christmas celebrations end through scripture and song.

 

Classes will begin following our Sunday assembly at approximately 11:30 a.m. No purchased materials are needed for the class, but participants are encouraged to bring their favorite bible. Please message Rev. Michael at pastor@princeofpeacebrookfield.org to let him know to expect you.

 

Session dates: Jan. 19 & 26,

Feb. 16 & 23

 

January 12 at 10:00 a.m.
