Teacher 4th Grade at Prince of Peace Mininstries

Introduction

Prince of Peace is a gracebased purposeoriented ministry. As people redeemed by Jesus Christ we seek to live in the joy of Gods gifts as we work to be what God calls and enables us to be as a Christian fellowship. We understand Gods direction for the church to have five components:

• To grow in knowledge of God and his character gifts and will for our lives.
• To be Gods ambassadors to our community carrying the message and love of God given us in Jesus Christ.
• To care and encourage each other in faith and life.
• To be a servant to those in need Gods tangible love to a world in hurt.
• To worship and be a voice of praise as God continues to give us his gifts in Word and sacraments.
