Find Peace
Ash Wednesday Service, February 18 at 7pm
Ash Wednesday begins Lent, a time of reflection and preparation for Easter. At Peace Presbyterian Church, we invite you to a meaningful service focused on repentance, humility, and hope through Christ’s sacrifice. The one-hour service includes worship, scripture reading, and the imposition of ashes—a symbol of mortality and dependency on God. The atmosphere is reverent yet welcoming for personal reflection and community support.
Welcome to Peace.
Peace Presbyterian Church is a PC(USA) congregation located in Lakewood Ranch, FL, on State Road 64 about 4 miles east of I-75. Peace is a growing, intergenerational congregation of 350 participants celebrating over 15 years of joyful and energized ministry for all.
We are an inclusive intergenerational church (we mean it) where visitors are warmly welcomed, but not rushed, and new members quickly find community.
Join us for Sunday worship at 9:30 AM.
There are many ways to feel at home at Peace Presbyterian Church.

First Time?
Ask most of our members why they joined Peace, and you’ll hear about the warm welcome and sense of belonging they experienced.
We affirm the sacred worth of all people and Christ’s example of unconditional love without exclusion. Our weekly worship reflects our values in leadership, sermons, music, and artwork.

Families at Peace
We are committed to our young people. We offer creative spaces where they can feel at home with God and with others their own age, but we don’t stop there. Our older adults intentionally include and mentor young people for connections across generations.
Whether in quality childcare, music, lock-ins, summer camps, service projects, or leading our church on the Session, there are many opportunities for every young person at Peace.
