Worship | Prince of Peace Lutheran Church [LCMS]

This page has been created so you can let people know what to expect when they visit your church.

Here are 4 ideas to help you get started:

How long is the service? It’s nice to know how long a service typically runs so people can plan accordingly.
What about kids? Visitors with children like to know what to do when they first walk in—should they head to the kid’s classrooms or bring them into the main service? Also, they want to know what kind of care their child will be receiving.
What’s the service like? Let people know the style of music, whether the service is formal or informal, and other details so they know what to expect. Try to make these details reflect the mission and values of your church.
How do people normally dress? People feel more comfortable in a new place when they don’t feel like they stand out.

Worship

Worship is each Sunday at 9:00 a.m. and usually lasts a little over an hour.

On first, second, and fifth Sundays of the month as well as during Advent and Lent we follow the order of service of Divine Service, Setting Three in the Lutheran Service Book.

On third and fourth Sundays we follow the order of Divine Service, Setting One in the Lutheran Service Book.

We celebrate Holy Communion each Sunday and ask our guests to read our statement regarding receiving Communion:

Following Jesus’ command and invitation, we celebrate Holy Communion. Prince of Peace follows the practice of the historic Christian Church of instructing its members in the Christian faith through the process known as Confirmation. Upon completion of the process they are confirmed in the Christian faith and then partake of Holy Communion. Please speak to our pastor before communing if you are not a member of a congregation of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. You may remain seated or you are welcome to come forward to receive a blessing. If you have questions about our practice or would like to learn more about our church please speak to our pastor.

We also observe Matins each Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. which is a brief order of worship.
