Message from our new Interim Minister: Chase Peeples
Greetings PHCC folks!
It is with joy and some trepidation that I join your faith community as interim minister. The trepidation comes from wondering how to do church in this frightening time in our world due to COVID-19. Yet, I also have joy,
because no matter our circumstances the risen Christ goes with us.
I am eager to get to know each of you and look forward to connecting by the various options technology affords us.
The north side of the KC metro is a bit new to me. I grew up in Grandview and now live in Overland Park,
so I know this area primarily from driving to the airport. I’m excited to know more than just I-29!
After Jen and I adopted our sons Julian and Jameson, we decided we needed to live close to grandparents! My parents had retired back in KC, so we moved here in 2007. I always considered KC my hometown, so I am grateful both the Royals and the Chiefs waited to win championships until I returned!
I look forward to preaching in worship on Sunday. Together we will discover some new ways to share the same old blessings of love, peace and fellowship that have existed among God’s people in times of plenty and struggle throughout the ages.
Grace and Peace,
Chase
