Who we are
STATEMENT OF FAITH
• We believe, teach, and confess the Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
• We believe, teach and confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and the gospel as the power of God for the salvation of all who believe in him. Jesus Christ is the Word of God incarnate, through whom everything was made and through whose life, death and resurrection God fashions a new creation. The proclamation of God's message to us as both law and gospel is the Word of God, revealing judgment and mercy in the person of Jesus Christ, through whom God was pleased to reconcile all things to himself. The canonical Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God. Inspired by God's Spirit speaking through their authors, they record and announce God's revelation centering in Jesus Christ. Through them, God's spirit speaks to us to create and sustain Christian faith and fellowship for service in the world.
• We believe, teach, and accept the canonical Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as the inspired Word of God, and the sole authoritative source and norm of our proclamation, faith, and fellowship.
• We accept the Apostles', Nicene, and Athanasian Creeds as true declarations of the scriptural faith.
• We believe, teach and accept the Unaltered Augsburg Confession and the Small Catechism as true witnesses to the Word of God, normative for our teaching and practice. We acknowledge that we are one in faith, and doctrine with all churches that likewise accept the teachings of the Augsburg Confession.
• We believe, teach, and confess the other confessional writings in the Book of Concord, namely, the Apology of the Augsburg Confession, the Smalcald Articles, the Treatise, the Large Catechism, and the Formula of Concord, as further valid expositions of the Holy Scriptures.
• We believe, teach, and confess the gospel, recorded in the Holy Scriptures and confessed in the ecumenical creeds and Lutheran confessional writings, as the power of God to create and sustain the priesthood of all believers for God's mission in the world.
• We believe and confess that the marriage of male and female is an institution created and blessed by God. From marriage, God forms families to serve as the building blocks of all human civilization and community. We teach and practice that sexual activity belongs exclusively within the biblical boundaries of a faithful marriage between one man and one woman.
In the conviction that God has called us through the Lordship of his Son Jesus Christ and the guidance of his Holy spirit to confess the gospel in its purity, this congregation has voted to join Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ and subscribes to the Statement of Faith, the Statement of Purpose, and other provisions of the constitution of Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ.

Leader Bio:
I was born to Lutheran parents in Newberry South Carolina. Dad was in the Air Force having joined the Army Air Corp Prior to WW2. Strangely enough we did not move around a lot. We spent a year at Langley AFB, VA and two years in Clovis NM. I managed to go from the 4th grade through high school in Sumter SC near Shaw AB where dad was stationed. He retired at the end of 1963 after a year in Thule Greenland while we stayed in Sumter. After two years at the University of SC, I worked a year with Exide Battery Co. before spending three years in the Army. I am retired from thirty years in the insurance business having spent eighteen of those years in management. I met and married my wife, Linda, while stationed at White Sands Missile Range and detached to Holloman AFB near her hometown of Alamogordo NM. We have three children, Leanne Sheppard, Benjamin and Andrew, and six grandchildren, three boys and three girls ranging in age from four months to age 20. We had been married almost 46 years at Linda’s death from her second bout with cancer in May, 2015
I earned my Master of Divinity from Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary in Columbia SC and was ordained April 9, 2016. I served at St. Mark’s in Blythewood SC just north of Columbia until accepting the call to Prairie Peace and Valier Lutheran Churches.

Prairie Peace Lutheran Church History
Our Beginning
On January 24, 2010, members of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church ELCA met to take a vote regarding St. Paul’s staying ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church of America) or moving to the LCMC (Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ). The vote was taken and the two thirds majority vote to leave ELCA was narrowly missed.
The faithful group who voted to leave the ELCA had already decided if they lost the vote, they would hold church somewhere else the following Sunday. They did not have a place picked out, but, it would probably be in someone’s home.
Later the same day Cut Bank Community Bible Church contacted Sid Brandon and informed him they had a special meeting and they voted to stand by us in our walk of faith. They assisted us by giving us the use of their South Campus for our temporary home. We ended up staying for approximately two years. Community Bible Church let us stay rent free, and they also covered us with their insurance for the first several months. After this initial period, we payed rent and insurance. They were truly a blessing.
We had many challenges ahead of us. At our first meeting, we voted unanimously to go with LCMC, and we voted to name our new congregation Prairie Peace Lutheran Church.
Our wonderful devoted leaders were: Sid Brandon-President, Robin Bradley-Vice President, Donna Lenoir-Secretary, Jan Arnot-Treasurer, Fred Grundman-Pastor, and Karla Kaleva-Music Director and Church Secretary.
Prior to constructing the new church building many locations in the community were looked at for possibility of making them into a church. In the end, Henry and Diane Alme generously donated the land that Prairie Peace sits on today.
We used local contractors as much as possible. Robert Winkowitch was the General Contractor. Dave Momberg, the plumber, Terry Shook the electrician. Billmans and Cut Bank Building Services were very generous to us. When it came time to sheetrock and tape, a special gentleman, Jack Johnson from Valier, along with many members of the congregation got the job done. Construction of our church building started in March 2012 and our first services were held in November 2012.
