About Me

Connie Lucille Peachey is the wife of one man, the mother of three children, a mother-in-law, and a grandmother of three fabulous boys. They don’t often have the opportunity to all be together under the same roof but when they do it is bursting with noise, joy, laughter, teasing, music, feasting. It is a riot! 

 Connie married her soul mate, Tom Peachey, in 1985. They have partnered in pastoral ministry for over 30 years, shepherding congregations ranging in size from 45 – 245, spanning all four western provinces from tiny prairie towns to the Greater Vancouver Area. Her greatest joy is working with people who long for a closer relationship with Jesus. 

 Tom and Connie enjoy exploring the great outdoors together in their canoe, on their mountain bikes, hiking urban and mountain trails alike. They find shalom when sitting by the campfire in their campsite. 

 Connie is on a journey of increasing intimacy with Jesus which began when she was 4 years old. He has carried her through very deep waters and continues to “make a way where there seems to be no way”. Recently, she celebrated her “year of jubilee”; 50 years of walking with Jesus!

Is He Worthy?

“[God] You are glorious and more majestic than the everlasting mountains. ” ( Psalm 76:4 , NLT) That verse stopped me in my tracks this morning. There is nothing quite like sitting beside a peaceful lake with the mountains in the background, to bring shalom to my soul. Our family has a favourite spot where we go camping whenever we get a chance. There is no cell reception back there and it is about the most peaceful place we have ever gone. I never get tired of sitting beside the pristine lake, gazing up at those majestic mountains. Mountains depict strength and majesty. They have been around since the beginning of creation. Generations come and go, while they stand unmoved by the busyness of mankind. They can stand against the worst storms assailing them. If they could talk, oh, the stories they could tell. Mountains represent endurance and timelessness, so much greater than anything the most brilliant of humans could build. Yet, as amazing as they are, even mountains crumble an

Released

If you have not yet done so, please read The Story (see link on Home screen) before you begin reading my posts. It will give the backstory to this blog.   Since the writing of my introduction  my computer remained, for the most part, dormant. I could not write. I know I said that this adventure was going to be exciting and I boldly said that I was ‘all in’ but I was not prepared for just how ‘exiting’ it was going to be. Plus, I was (still am) quite frightened to write my blog for others to read. I did not have the strength to be that vulnerable. Since the writing of my introduction  my husband has taken the position Lead Pastor in a small town in south-central Alberta. I am once again married to a pastor which makes me a pastor’s wife. What about the tether that was thrown off? You know, the one called ‘pastor’s wife’? (see intro blog). Our home in central AB has not yet sold so we are renting a condo. I love it here. I have a beautiful office. I can walk to the grocery store

God's Invitation - Provision - Presence

I’m getting tired of living month to month wondering how we are going to make ends meet. I would just like the pressure to be relieved. I would like ‘normal’ life to return. When my husband resigned from his last ministry position, we did not know how we were going to manage paying a mortgage while on Employment Insurance. Anyone who has ever gone on EI knows that it only pays 50% of the bills. Which 50% would we pay? The mortgage? The utilities and groceries? The vehicle maintenance and insurance? How would we survive without going into foreclosure? We knew we had obeyed God when he said it was time to relinquish our jobs. So, we trusted (well, we sort of trusted) that God would look after us. From September 1, 2018 until September 1, 2019 God paid our mortgage one month at a time. He met all our needs. We never went hungry or homeless. We did put our house on the market but with the downturn of the economy no one was/is buying houses in Central Alberta. So, w e lived in th
