Communities thrive through their engagement with one another. There are many opportunities to become engaged at Prince of Peace on a weekly, monthly or special event basis. Most opportunities only require a 2 - 4 hr. commitment at one time, with the exception of program leaders which require a minimum 9 month program year commitment. Training is provided as necessary. A sample of positions and skills are listed below. Interested participants should fill out the form online here. Someone will get back to you within one week. We look forward to your contribution to Prince of Peace ministries!
