Isaiah 58:12 "Those from among you will rebuild the ancient ruins; You will raise up the age-old foundations; And you will be called the Repairer of the Breach, The Restorer of streets in which to dwell." Peoples Church believes it is important to be involved in our local community. We seek to connect to our community through special events, charities and volunteering opportunities with local, non-profit organizations. To get involved or for more information, contact the church office at info@peopleschurchtoday.org.
