Under the umbrella of Evangelization, Christian Service provides opportunities for parishioners to live out the Corporal Works of Mercy and Catholic Social Teaching.
At Prince of Peace, we strive -- through education, charitable collections, and outreach opportunities -- to transform the heart of the one who serves while transforming the lives of those who are served.
Every day, parishioners can be involved in living out their faith through any of the ongoing service opportunities.
As Catholics, we have many role models of what it means to live out our baptismal call to service, especially by walking in the footsteps of Mother Teresa and learning from the words and actions of Pope Francis. We have a rich tradition.
Check this site regularly, as needs are constantly changing.
For many years Prince of Peace has been serving, supporting and feeding those most in need in the Detroit Brightmoor community. Since the onset of COVID-19 the Soup Kitchen had to change how they supplied eat-in meals and is now strictly carryout. We continue to supply the Soup Kitchen with food and supplies necessary to serve their clients. To make a mometary donation place cash or checks made out to Prince of Peace in the Poor Box located in the back of church.
