Advent Series

Peace I leave with you - A series on dwelling in the Peace of Christ

November 28, December 5, 12, & 19 / 7 pm
St. Peter’s Chapel

Advent is a time of preparation to greet the One we call the Prince of Peace. Our Advent series explores this peace, which passes all understanding (Philippians 4:7), ways we can experience that peace more fully in our lives, and ways we can be servants of God’s peace for others. We’ll meet Tuesday evenings in the Chapel (entrance on the left side of St. Peter’s Church). If you cannot join us in person, a Zoom option is available.

November 28: Dwelling in Peace - the Shalom of God

Shalom is the Hebrew word for peace. Its root means “to be whole.” In the Hebrew Scriptures, peace is a collective experience. How does Shalom influence our understanding of peace?

December 5: Dwelling Peace in times of Grief and Loss

God is present in every moment of our lives. How can we dwell in peace in the midst of grief and loss?

December 12: Dwelling in the Peace of Christ

Jesus is the one we call the Prince of Peace. What is Christ’s peace? Jesus leaves us this peace. How do we know this peace in our souls and in our relationships?

December 19: Bringing Peace

The Christian life is not just about our own relationship with God. It is also about how we join God’s healing work in the world. In the words of St. Francis, how do we become servants of peace?
