Peace of the City exists to be a force for good in under-resourced Buffalo neighborhoods, loving and empowering children, teens and their families in the name of Christ.

Over the years, four priorities – literacy, the arts, advocacy and transformation – have gradually emerged and now drive Peace of the City’s vision and ministry forward.

Literacy
“Education is the backbone of the soul.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Arts
“The arts lead us into worship, teach us a sense of reverence and awe for Creation, and remind us to hope again.” – POTC’s Creative Arts Mission

Advocacy
“Defend the cause of the weak and powerless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.”
- Psalm 82:3

Transformation
“You will be called ‘Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings’.” – Isaiah 58:12
