We meet on the fourth Monday of each month (except December) at 6:30 p.m. at the Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 815 E. Farm Road 182, Springfield, Missouri. Park in the lot at the back of the church and enter on the lower level. Meetings are open to the public and usually include a presentation, a short social break, and a club business session. Typically, meetings last 90 minutes to two hours.

Please note that the Prince of Peace does not allow displays or sale of “demonic items, horoscopes, zodiac, occult, satanic, cult, witchcraft, or black mass, voodoo, medium’s [sic] and the like” in the church or on the campus. They ask that we please be respectful of the church’s beliefs while on their property.
