Yes, we are Mennonite.

No, we don’t wear funny hats. (Not usually, anyway.)

We think a lot.
We pray a lot.
We laugh a lot.
And we sing a lot. (Some of us really well.)
We love Jesus.
We love each other.
We’d love to meet you.

Welcome Statement: We welcome into the full life of Peace Mennonite Church all who seek to follow Jesus’ way of peacemaking and compassion. We rejoice in the diverse characteristics each person brings to our community, and we embrace differences in race, gender, sexual orientation, physical ability, mental ability, economic status, marital status, and age.

Peace Mennonite Church is part of Mennonite Church USA and Western District Conference.

Our pastor is Rev. Joanna Harader (she/her).
Joanna has served as Pastor of Peace Mennonite Church since May 2006. She gets to study scripture, write, preach, plan worship, work toward God’s Shalom and walk alongside people on their faith journeys. She can’t understand why everyone doesn’t want to be a pastor! She blogs at Spacious Faith. And frequently checks her email at peacemennopastor at gmail dot com.

Our part-time Administrative Assistant is Jerry Dowdle (she/her). She is a resident of Lawrence and hopes to remain so for many years. She takes care of bulletins, ENews, website updates, filing, and other office tasks. General information, requests, and announcements can be directed to her at peacemennonite at gmail dot com.
