It was a great Saturday as members of the POP Young Adult ministry and Pathfinders joined Minnie's Food Pantry of Plano to load 10,000+ Thanksgiving meals in cars for families in Collin County where food insecurity is growing each year. Energy was high beginning at dawn as we sang, danced and greeted and served families struggling to find their next meal.

This past Saturday, our dedicated Ministry Leaders at Prince of Peace gathered in our brand new Parish Hall for the third annual Ministry Leader Orientation, and it was nothing short of spectacular!

Thank you to all our awesome Prince of Peace volunteers who have been dedicating their Saturdays to a multi-phased home repair project for a widow in Plano who has cancer and needs our help. Our POP volunteers have been working alongside parishioners with St. Elizabeth Seton and St. Mark the Evangelist in Plano on the project led by Habitat for Humanity Collin County.

It was cold but the energy was high Saturday morning as POP Young Adults and POP Pathfinders joined forces with hundreds of area volunteers to load turkeys and boxes of food into cars lined up for miles at Minnie’s Food Pantry in East Plano. Their service of love helped provide Thanksgiving dinner for upwards of 4,000 hungry and needy families in surrounding communities. Servant hearts are grateful hearts.

This past Saturday nearly 50 of our parish ministry leaders gathered for our second annual Ministry Leader Orientation event! Our ministry leaders participated in small group discussions, were given a walk-through of our Ministry Leader Handboook, prayed, and learned about the many ways that Prince of Peace can partner with them to make their ministries more effective.

Prince of Peace volunteers worked hard Saturday building a house for a family in Celina, TX! Many of our parishioners have been answering Christ’s call to serve as part of this year’s Lenten Mission “3 Ways 40 Days”.

“Yesterday, some of our parishioners visited Minnie’s Food Pantry as part of our Lenten Mission call to corporal works of mercy! These generous folks helped to sort and distribute meals to families.

On Dec. 18, Pathfinders donated $500 on behalf of Prince of Peace to Collin County Habitat for Humanity to help purchase pantry supplies for the Asfye Desta family's new home in McKinney.
