Fellowship

Fellowship means being a part of a group; a body of people. It is the opposite of isolation, solitude, loneliness, and our present-day independent kind of individualism. It means sharing common interests, feelings, beliefs, goals, experiences, etc. It doesn't mean we are all alike, in fact fellowship is best when there are different view points, experiences, backgrounds, and ideas that come together.

As Jesus shares his life with us, we enjoy sharing our lives with others. Through events for all ages, we laugh, talk, eat, and share together with our friends, neighbors, and family. There are many opportunities for involvement at Prince of Peace; here is a sampling of the Fellowship opportunities available to you:

	Sunday Bible Study: Weekly discussions on topics ranging from the problems facing Christians in the morern world to interpretations of the more complex lessons of the Bible. These groups are open to all and absolutely no experience with Biblical education is required to join in.
	Women’s Retreat: A weekend away for those women seeking a growing relationship with God and fellowship with other women in the congregation.
	Men’s Breakfast: A weekly gathering of men who engage one another in personal, spiritual, and professional conversation. This group usually meets every Wednesday morning; check the Events Calendar for specific time and location information.
	Women’s Breakfast: A monthly gathering of women who engage one another in personal, spiritual, and professional conversation. This group usually meets the second Thursday of every month; check the Events Calendar for specific time and location information.
	The Forum: The Forum is a Prince of Peace community outreach program that meets the third Thursday of the month at Osaka's Grill in Crofton. The public is invited. The group explores ideas and knowledge in science, humanities, government, media and matters of local interest with those having expertise in these areas. The program begins with lunch followed by a guest speaker presentation..
	Youth Group Outings: At various times during the month, and on Sunday mornings, our Youth Group meets for discussions on what they are facing as christian youth in a modern world; topics are driven by the group. Throughout each month, our Youth Group meets for mission work, movie outings, and other fun gatherings. Each interaction is an opportunity for our youth to support and nurture one another.
	Coffee Fellowship: A weekly gathering of the entire congregation after the Sunday service. Each week, a volunteer provides an assortment of goodies along with coffee and other drinks for the members of the congregation to enjoy after the worship service has concluded. Everyone is invited to enjoy this special time to connect with one another!
