What time is worship and what’s the focus/theme?    10am – Sunday Worship Services

Communion is celebrated every 2nd, 4th, and 5th Sunday.  A specifically oriented Children’s service 3rd Sunday.

Fellowship Coffee & Brunch follows the worship service.

What is worship like?
We call our worship style, “both/and.” We worship with treasures old and new! (Matthew 13.52) We praise God with both
traditional and contemporary resources to best communicate relevant and meaningful take-aways. The point is leaving the sanctuary and entering the world with God’s Power and Peace providing confidence in Christ. We’ll utilize a wide-array of resources toward that end!

How do people dress?
Well, this IS Florida and it can get hot here, so dress is comfortable and casual. From shorts and sandals to a business casual look, you are welcome to come as you are!

What if I have noisy little ones during worship?
We encourage children to join in the worship experience. There is a nursery available for infants and toddlers (children 4 years old or younger) if you need or would like. There are speakers in the Nursery and in the Fellowship Hall so you can still remain connected to the sanctuary. In the hallway there are ACTIVITY BAGS that can be borrowed for younger children.

Children aged 3 to 7 are invited to attend Children’s Church in session during the sermon.

Welcome to Peace Lutheran Church                 (Lutheran Church Missouri Synod)

Why attend Peace church?

In two words, “the Gospel!” Peace is centered and anchored to the Truth of Jesus – that His crucifixion and resurrection were for our salvation! This we believe!

You’ll be inspired by God’s Word applied to real life. Visit our web site, PeaceNaples.org and listen to past messages, or press the “God Connects” button for a summary of what we believe.

 

Why get involved at Peace?

 Become involved to be blessed. The blessing the Lord provides leads you to God’s abundance of grace.

Become involved to be a blessing.  From simply serving others at fellowship events, to set aside times of prayer, you will be given an opportunity to lead others to God’s abundance in many ways! In God’s ways, you’ll be blessed, to be a blessing

Become involved to be a part of something big

Our vision, “Connecting People To Jesus” is rooted in Jesus’ calling, “Unless you receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, you will not enter it!” (Mark 10:15) Encouraging adults to receive God’s gifts like children is a large calling taking up a lifetime

 

Why contribute to the vision of Peace?

Do your part to keep the lights on. At the most basic level, your financial contributions keep the A/C and lights on. It’s not our highest calling – but it is necessary!

Invest in the lives of children and families. Higher yet, is the calling to know you’re investing in children and families that wrestle with the temptations and distractions of today’s world. Your tithes and offerings turn into staffing and educational resources to reach children and their families

Receive the joy and satisfaction that comes with living generously

Have you ever noticed how living generously is its own blessing?  Generous people tend to live with greater trust in God’s provision!

Peace offers two types of membership: full and associate members. Full members may be full or part-time Florida residents who consider Peace their main church affiliation. Associate members maintain their membership at their home church and consider Peace their church when they are in Southwest Florida.

Should you chose, there are four ways to become a member:

  • By transfer from a congregation of the LCMS
  • By affirmation of faith for those who are confirmed in the Lutheran Church.
  • By Adult Confirmation. These classes meet for 6 two-hour sessions explaining what we believe, teach, and confess as Lutherans. We usually have two or three classes during the year.
  • By Youth Confirmation. This is a 2 year experience starting in 7th grade

If you wish to explore membership, please talk with our Pastor.
