Resurrected Jesus proclaims – peace? Peace is the farthest thing from the minds of Jesus’ followers in the days after their beloved teacher’s execution. Painful, ugly and shameful – Jesus’ death, his enemies hope, will squash the dangerous nonsense growing among his followers. Then some women come along with an amazing – and seemingly nonsensical […]
Jesus, a shady lady, and eternal-life water! Jesus compares new life in God to a gushing spring whose water brings new life. That’s amazing news to the woman in today’s story – and maybe to you, too! This woman has quite the history. In a culture that prized chastity, she has been married to five […]
“All Creatures Great and Small” Animals gathered with their responsible humans on Saturday, Oct. 3, for a Blessing of the Animals at PEACE Lutheran Church in Grass Valley.

Always remembered in Our Prayers Every Sunday, we raise up many people and situations in prayer. We pray for our sick, for those in harm’s way, for peace in war-torn areas, for people affected by natural disasters, for those who are persecuted for their faith, and for anyone close to our hearts. In addition, Pastor […]
Feel like something’s missing? Jesus promises that, when you walk his Path, you’ll never be hungry again. What’s really amazing? The more you let Jesus feed you, the more you find that this world’s bread – the material things we think we’re hungry for – isn’t what fills you up. Eat with us here at […]

Today we contemplate the Holy Trinity. This is the three-persons-in-one-God concept that is central to Christianity – the persons of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. It’s also the first Sunday after Pentecost, the day when we remembered God sending his Holy Spirit to Jesus’ followers after Jesus ascended into […]
— Thank you! You can imagine the excitement at Interfaith Food Ministry, our local, faith-based food pantry, when they reached their goal of raising $30,000 in only two weeks! What a testimony to God’s power to bless the efforts of his people as we reach out to our hungry neighbors. The response of caring people to […]
Paul & his music: Gifts from God — Here at PEACE Lutheran Church, we mourn the sudden death of Paul Perry, our pianist and organist for 21 years. Paul died unexpectedly at his Nevada City home on Feb. 14. Paul’s contribution to PEACE, as well as to the entire community of western Nevada County, is […]
Lutherans have a long history of seeing all church members as ministers, so it’s natural for us to have non-ordained people ministering before, during and after worship services. All volunteers receive training. For more about any of our worship volunteer opportunities, call the church office at (530) 273-9631. Altar Guild – We are looking for […]
