It’s a great time for the whole family…we will see you there!
We are in need of dozens of cookies to serve the community attending the Live Nativity event on Friday, Dec. 2nd. Please drop off bought or baked cookies to the kitchen on the night of the event. If you would like to donate cookies but are unable to drop them off that evening, please call Donna Behrens at 480-784-7590 and we can set a time for me to pick them up. Thank you for opening your kitchen and your heart to provide for this outreach event!

Circle of Peace has an Assistance Fund.  The purpose of this fund is to quietly meet the tangible, pressing needs of people we know.  Through this ministry, we have helped single parents find work and helped at-risk families with food, transportation, and housing. Usually, we help the very people we worship alongside. This fund has been especially important since 2020. As we near the holidays, please consider a gift to the Assistance Fund.  You can give by simply designating “Assistance Fund” on your check or electronic gift.  Questions?  Contact Juliana at frontdesk@circleofpeacechurch.com.
