ADULT FAITH & LIFE

Bible Study

Every Monday at 5:30, our Senior Minister, Rev. Dr. Matthew Wooster, leads a relaxed forum for discussing and sharing our personal interpretations of the Bible and other liturgical works. Explore the context and personal meaning of selected Biblical passages or a book.  Supplemental readings from authors such as Bishop Michael Curry, Amy-Jill Levine, and Anne Lamott are also often used to provide additional insight.

We are a diverse community, comprised of Plymouth members of different ages, cultural backgrounds, and religious beliefs. If you want to develop a deeper understanding of the Bible and form supportive friendships please join us. Drop-ins are welcome, and no prior “homework” is required! The group currently meets on Zoom; email mwooster@plymouthchurchucc.org for the link.

Fossil Fuel

Despite what you might think from the group’s title, Fossil Fuel is not a group about oil and natural gas, but rather a discussion group that meets for coffee and pastries (fuel for fossils) as well as lively conversations on a variety of current topics. We are a congenial group that encourages diverse viewpoints at our meetings. Fossil Fuel meets every other Wednesday in the Candy Circle Conference room of Plymouth Church. Everyone is invited to join, and no RSVPs are required. Email the church office (office@plymouthchurchucc.org) for the current schedule.

Social Justice Collaboration

Guided by the life and words of Jesus and Plymouth's Just Peace Declaration, the Social Justice Collaboration within Plymouth provides a cross-generational supportive forum and a team for engaging with social justice issues within and outside of Plymouth. 

​

Our goals include:

  • Building a strong network and engaging others

  • Having a well-informed congregation that shares information and participates as interested

  • Undertaking advocacy and service actions

  • Supporting the members of the congregation, the local community, and the world

Wednesdays Together

Plymouth Church and Heights Christian Church are both blessed to call our building at 2860 Coventry Road home. Both congregations have committed to growing friendships between our members, as well as discerning what ministry opportunities and events we can embark on together! One way we seek to expand our relationship is through sharing “Wednesdays Together.” Each Wednesday of the month, we share in fellowship and formation with one another. We look forward to seeing many folks from HCC and Plymouth at each gathering!

Please reach out to Rev. Dillon Shipman at dshipman@plymouthchurchucc.org with any questions.

First Wednesday

Join us for Book Group. Come and be in conversation around a different chosen book each month. You’re welcome even if you haven’t read the book to enjoy the discussion together. 

Second Wednesday

Join us for Meditative Arts Group. We will provide projects or you can bring your own.  Everyone is invited to color, doodle, draw, paint, knit, sew – whatever fits your interest and provides soothing quiet for you. We will gather with fellowship, then listen to calm, soothing music while we break out our pens, crayons, colored pencils, and knitting needles.

Third Wednesday

Join us for Lunch Club. We gather for a homemade meal and fellowship, and then listen to a speaker from the community or one of our churches. We will occasionally take a field trip out to a destination in Northeast Ohio, so be on the lookout for where we will meet each month.

Fourth Wednesday

Join us for Mid-week Meditations. This simple service will center on prayer, study, song, meditation on scripture, and devotions to take with you for the week ahead. Each week, we'll continue to utilize different contemplative practices, such as Lectio Divina, centering prayer, and Ignatian contemplation. Just bring an open heart to deepening your spiritual journey with God and your fellow pilgrims!
