We are an ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) Congregation located in the historic Warnersville community since the early 1970s. We are a unique congregation with a mixture of ages, races and life experiences. We offer some traditional Lutheran worship elements flavored by the African American experience. You are invited to worship with us every Sunday, at 11:00 am, to find out more.
Prince of Peace Lutheran Church is also a Center for Health and Wellness - spiritual, mental and physical. This is the focus of the congregation and our community outreach. Visit our calendar for events that you may be able to participate in and benefit from. We invite you to join us in this mission.

At the POPLC Congregational Meeting held June 5, 2011, the congregation voted to participate in the Warnersville Healthy Communities Project.
It is our intent to use our property for a community garden / urban farm with the goal of providing more affordable, accessible, and healthy fresh foods to our community as part of our health & wholeness ministry focus.
Please see the document for complete details of the proposal, which may evolve over time.
