Prince of Peace had it's beginning in 1987 when Pastor Arno Meyer was called as a Mission Developer to establish a Lutheran Congregation in Southwest Topeka. A core of 37 interested people met in Pastor's home to initiate plans to start a congregation.

First worship was held February 14, 1988, in a Villa West Shopping Center store front.The congregation was chartered June 12, 1988, with 241 members signing the role. The congregation experienced rapid growth that necessitated the need to build a permanent facility. Groundbreaking for the new facility began in February 1989. A dedication ceremony was conducted on February 18, 1990, for our new multi-purpose facility.

Prince of Peace Preschool opened its doors in February 1990. Phase II construction is complete and was dedicated February 14, 1996. Educational classrooms and permanent offices have been added for much needed space.
Phase III, the construction of the worship and family life center is planned in the next few years.
