A stewardship parish strives to nourish the soul through prayer. It is through prayer that we nurture our personal relationship with Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Prayer is the lifeblood of a disciple. This includes not only our personal prayer but the opportunity to pray with and for others. We have a robust prayer ministry at parish, made up of men and women who are eager to help others in times of need.
Liturgy and Prayer ministries serve the Prince of Peace faith community in the areas of both private and public worship. Many opportunities are available for those who feel called to take an active and visible role by serving in the Sunday Eucharistic celebration. Other opportunities are available for those who feel called to serve in a supportive, behind the scenes role. As Catholics, the Mass is at the heart of all that we believe.
