Sunday Services:

Sunday is our celebration of Easter on April 9.  This will be a special day in the life of Peace Covenant as we celebrate Christ’s resurrection with special music. Services begin at 11 a.m.

Pastor Joe Reggin, using Mark 16:1-8 NRSV, will preach on “The Man in the Tomb.”

Children’s Sunday School: 11:15 a.m. following the children’s story in services.

Adult Sunday School begins at 10:00 a.m. in Fellowship Hall. We invite everyone to join us for this time of fellowship and discussion. This is a wonderful time to meet new friends, to become better acquainted with current friends, and to grow in our understanding of what our Faith means in our lives today. 

Easter Musical Notes from John Penkoske

Come and hear our new “SOUTHERNMOST PIPE ORGAN” this Easter Sunday for the first time. Tim Newby from Central Music in Clearwater has been here all week tuning and scaling for this long awaited moment. Special music this Sunday will include our Handbell Choir and a “SPECIAL SURPRISE.”

As an extra note: Most musicians when they are part of a church service think of their gifts as part of the worship experience and not a performance. Therefore, please hold all applause of appreciation until the conclusion of the postlude at the end of the service.

This is an exciting time for Peace Covenant.  We have been Truly Blessed, John Penkoske, organist, bell choir director

Palm Sunday Services on April 2, 2023, included special music, communion and punch and fellowship on the patio.

Please remember, we are all volunteers here, so if you have expertise you can share, let us know. We are seeking a professional to fix the systems. Nevertheless, here is the Palm Sunday video.
