Dear Peace families,
I’m writing to provide more information about our plan for distance learning. Our goal is to provide you with learning opportunities for your children so they can continue to learn and grow. The information provided below is a simple overview; the classroom teachers will be providing more specifics.
Stay Connected to Jesus
Our school is closed so that we can preserve our families’ health and safety. We are equally concerned about your spiritual health. As you’re able, make time to grow in the Word. Read the bible, have a family devotion, watch one of our past sermons, sing/read a hymn, or just spend time in prayer. During this time of uncertainty, lean on your God.
Schedule
We are taking “snow” days on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week. This will enable our faculty to develop plans for our distance learning. Distance learning will begin on Thursday, March 19th and will run through March 27th. We will plan to take our regularly scheduled Spring Break on March 30th through April 3rd.
Right now, we are scheduled to return to classes on Monday, April 6th. There is a possibility we will extend to April 13th and follow our district’s decision. We will continue monitoring the situation and will communicate a decision several days in advance. Our school building will remain closed until classes resume.
You may have heard the DPI is allowing waivers for instructional hours. The process for private schools to do this is still developing. However, we still feel it is our duty and obligation to provide our students with ways they can learn even if the hours requirement is waived.
Distance learning
Our philosophy for distance learning is to provide our students with learning opportunities while not adding stress to our families. We understand that our parents are wading through uncertainty with their jobs, childcare, and income. Your children’s education is important to us, but we also understand that the demands of everyday life have changed. Therefore, our teachers will be focusing on our core curriculum – Word of God, Literacy, and Math – and providing additional enrichment opportunities in other areas.
Your child(ren)’s teacher will be communicating with you about their plans for learning as well as the best way to stay in contact with them. Our teachers will be available by email, phone, text, or other technology during regular school hours.
Our teachers are working to deliver the best possible learning opportunities, but we are all learning in a changing situation. Some things may work great, some things may need to be adjusted. Please stay in communication with your chid(ren)’s teacher(s).
We appreciate your patience and understanding. As plans change, I will communicate them to our Peace family. I am looking forward to when we can be back at school, am praying for health and safety for you and your families.
In Christ’s Service,
Principal Ben Washburn
Jesus Cares Worship
These simplified Worship Services are designed to meet the needs of individuals with a variety of special needs, including dementia, autism, Down’s Syndrome, language disorders, and more!
Worship Services are held on the fourth Monday of the month at 6:00 pm at Trinity Community Center in Mayville.
Advent, coming from the Latin word meaning to come, is a season of preparation and anticipation. The Church looks for the coming of her Savior in this threefold advent: his coming in the flesh, his return in judgment, and his daily coming in Word and Sacrament. The Church encompasses all these facets of the season in the single word that defines Advent worship: “Come!” Throughout the prayers, verses, songs, and lessons that single word is our invitation, our anticipation, our sure and certain hope. Come, Lord Jesus!
December 1 He Is Coming! Prepare!
December 8 He Is Coming! Repent!
December 15 He Is Coming! Persevere!
December 22 He Is Coming! He Is God with Us; Immanuel!
Christmas Worship at Peace!
God looked at our broken world and loved it. He sent his Son to bring God’s love and forgiveness to people in desperate need of both. The child born in a Bethlehem stable came to live for us, die for us, and rise from the dead to be out Savior. Join us to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ! Our worship will feature an inspiring message, favorite Christmas carols and a place to fine God’s word-changing love. A Savior has been born to you, he is Christ the Lord.
Christmas Eve. December 24
Sunday School Children’s Program @ 4pm

Lutheran Military Support Group
Peace Lutheran Church has joined the LMSG supporting our veterans beginning with the addition of an LMSG Liaison, Mike Lippert who will report to the Board of Youth and Family. We will soon be adding an LMSG Support Group as well. Please CLICK HERE to sign up for the support group.
Mission Statement
Lutheran Military Support Group is a non-profit organization providing Christ-centered support to military service members, veterans, and their families.
LMSG Organizational Concept and Design
LMSG is an incorporated WI nonprofit, run by a Board of Evangelical Lutheran (WELS/ELS) Veterans from all branches of service, in several states.
The group is a national level organization, designed to have national reach, but local impact. We are designed to be both an auxiliary to WELS Military Services, and the ELS Christian Service Board in their support of active duty service members, and an independent organization supporting the needs of our military veterans and our “military families” of both active duty members and veterans. Further information about the LMSG can be found at http://lutheranmilitary.org/
Read through Scripture and count the times it refers to believers as “brothers and sisters.” The Holy Spirit uses terms like these to help us think of each other as family.
In this 6-week worship series, we will look at how our Father knits us together in love and unity into a spiritual family. We will see the benefits of being part of this family. In the Church, Christ has given us a better home.
We hope you will be able to join us as we strengthen the ties that have bound us together as family members in Christ!
