Jeff brings a passion for sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, joyful worship, and leading people to dig deeper into the life of faith.

Jeff is an active recreational bike rider and recently organized and rode in a 340 mile ride to support the Upstate NY Synod's Feeding the Roots of Leadership Capital Campaign. He loves watching baseball, especially his beloved Phillies. In addition Jeff is a deer hunter (a.k.a his annual prayer retreat).

Jeff and Linda have one very spoiled dog, Thumper, better known as "Puppy". Jeff and Linda's son Andrew lives in California and works for Blizzard Entertainment.  Michele, Becky and Matthew are grown children from Linda's first marriage; and their children (Jeff and Linda's grandchildren) are Keeley, Luke, Sarah, Thomas and Ryan.

Becca Ehrlich is also a native of Upstate NY. Becca grew up in Waterford, NY and graduated from Shenendehowa High School. She then moved to Pennsylvania for a while, earning a B.A. from Muhlenberg College in Allentown and an M.A. from La Salle University in Philadelphia. She recently graduated from seminary, earning an M.Div. from the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia in May 2011; she is seeking ordination in the ELCA, and hopes to receive a call as a parish pastor in the future. Becca is excited to be the Lay Ministry Associate at Prince of Peace, and to be serving in her hometown area!

In her free time, Becca enjoys watching movies, singing, dancing, reading, and spending time with family and friends.

Melanie Milley is originally from Buffalo, New York. Her family moved to the area while she was in high school and graduated from Shenendehowa High School. She worked in the insurance field until she became a proud Mom of her 13^th month old daughter Ashlyn. She enjoys reading and going for walks in her “free time”.

Lori Orlowski was born and raised in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, a suburb of Denver. She started playing piano when she was 8 years old, and has been accompanying various choirs, soloists, and groups of every kind, both vocal and instrumental, ever since. After graduating from the University of Kansas, she met and married Jeff. After living in Kansas City for a year, they moved back to Denver where their two sons were born. Jeff's job changes have taken them to Lubbock, Texas; Houston, Texas; and now Clifton Park, NY. Lori accompanied the Prince of Peace choir for 4 years before taking over for our retiring organist and choir director. She enjoys most caring for her family, and watching her oldest son's band and jazz band concerts and rock band perform, and youngest son's hockey games.
