Proclaim A Journey of Faith Nearly 60 years ago, a group of faithful believers embarked on an incredible adventure to fulfill God's great commission in a new place. Over the decades, Peace Church has witnessed the remarkable hand of the Lord at work in our midst. In October 2023, we began PROCLAIM, a two-year spiritual and financial journey to support God’s call for us to continue to proclaim the gospel.
