The Session met June 2 regarding updating our safety guidelines.  We are fully aware we cannot please everyone, but we hope our plan will satisfy the majority of our church family.  We are all anxiously awaiting the day when covid will be behind us!This is the decision we have made.  
1.  No longer will temps be taken at the door.  If you are not feeling well or have been exposed to Covid, please stay home and watch online.


2.  Due to the rise in the delta variant The Scioto Valley Presbytery in their weekly news today said:  It  is very strongly advised by our Presbytery Coordinating Team that masks be worn indoors regardless of vaccination status.The Elders of Plain City Presbyterian Church are strongly advising all to wear masks on Sunday morning.  This is NOT a mandate.  We are leaving the decision up to each individual. 

3. Sanitizing will still continue.   

We are grateful for your cooperation!  You have been wonderful and responsible in this very trying season!  Should you have any questions, please let Rev Alice know.  We will continue to revisit this as things change.  Session approved opening the church up to outside groups this fall with safety protocols in place.

MISSION TRIP: The Mission Trip group had a great week at  Point Pleasant, WV.   They worked on building a ramp to a home. Having traveled there several years, they enjoyed the friends they have made in previous years and making new ones. Not only did they share their carpentry skills, but they shared the love of Jesus with the people we met.  We joined teams from the Dublin and Marysville Presbyterian churches for this outreach experience. THEY PLAN ON RETURNING THIS SUMMER DEPENDING ON VIRUS SITUATION.  Thank you to everyone who helped with the road clean up for mission funds!

OUR SCRIPTURE VERSE FOR THE YEAR - On Sunday, January 3, we celebrated Epiphany (Jan. 6).  You will have the opportunity to get a special Scripture passage for the year.  Since you can’t be in worship at the church to pick one out of a bag or have it attached to your bulletin, we will use a different method. Choose a number between 1 and 100. Send your number to Alice either by text (740-391-2531) or by email revalp@neo.rr.com, and Alice will send you your verse for the year.

MONDAY NIGHT BIBLE STUDY:Rev Alice will be resuming the weekly Bible study on Monday, September 13, 2021 at 6:30 P.M. We will be continuing our study of Romans.  All are welcome to join us!
