Our History
St. Ambrose
St. James
St. John the Evangelist
Winton-Culver Catholic Community
In 1997, the Pastoral Planning for the New Millennium Process started, where our three parishes started discussing combining ministries and services as a cluster. In July 2004, our three churches, St. John the Evangelist, St. James and St. Ambrose became Winton-Culver Catholic Community, and came together under the new pastor, Fr. Robert Schrader, and parochial vicar, Fr. Robert Werth.
Peace of Christ Parish
In 2007 the parishioners of the three parishes in the cluster decided it was time to combine into a single canonical parish. In a vote by the parishioners, the name Peace of Christ Parish was the clear favorite for the name of this new parish.
In 2021, Fr. Peter Mottola was assigned the pastor of Peace of Christ Parish.
