Welcome to Peace Presbyterian Church's website. We encourage you to learn about us here and join us for worship every Sunday morning at 11:00 AM.

Peace Church is wonderfully welcoming. Its people take seriously Jesus' command to "Love one another as I have loved you." It is a place for people that have been hurt, damaged and bruised by 'religion' and its people. It is also a place for people that have been left on the outside or forced there by unpopular beliefs.

We believe in the inherent worth and dignity of every person - as Jesus taught in the gospels - regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical or metal ability, nationality or economic class. All are equally accepted and embraced here. We believe this spirit is essential to our shared faith and life.

We seek to stand with the outcast and oppressed, the denigrated and afflicted, seeking peace and justice for everyone.

We work to preserve religious freedom and the Church's ability to speak prophetically to government by resisting the co-mingling of church and state.

Our goal is to walk humbly with God, acknowledging our own shortcomings while honestly seeking to understand and call for the best in others, including those who consider us their enemies.

We believe that in Christ all things are made new and that God's children are loved beyond our wildest imagination, forever.

We claim the sacredness of both our minds and hearts, recognizing that faith and science, doubt and belief all serve the pursuit of truth.

We invite you to "check us out." Consider making Peace Church a base for your own faith journey.

Peace and Joy!

Mark G. Lemmenes,
Pastor

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?' The father, despite having a heart condition, said 'Yes'. They went on to complete the marathon together.

Father and son went on to join other marathons - the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's request of going through the race together.

One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.' To which, his father said ‘Yes’.

For those who don't know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86 kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike ride, and ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 kilometer) marathon along the coast of the Big Island.

Father and son went on to complete the race together.
