The motto is: “Don’t just go to church. BE the Church.” And on Sunday, August 11, that is exactly what the twenty-one churches of the Plain City Church Fellowship are asking their congregations and the Plain City community to do. Be the Church. Many of the churches are canceling their services to instead carry out charitable activities within Plain City and the surrounding areas.

If you would like to get involved, you can gather with other participants in Plain City at 10 am at Jonathan Alder High School in the main gym on Sunday, August 11. There will be a brief period of worship and prayer and then participants will spread throughout Plain City to partake in service projects.

There will be special projects at the North Avenue apartments, Canaan Community trailer park, and the Bickham Center. Additionally, this year, the “back to school clothing store” will be held in the Vineyard Church’s Daily Needs Assistance (DNA) Community Center in the old elementary school. You can also help the Vineyard finish moving into the elementary’s space from their old location behind the post office.
