Project FAQs

In considering changes to our sanctuary, we are not only discussing architecture, but also asking how our physical space reflects our shared commitments to accessibility, community, beauty, justice, and reverence. Faithful discernment requires honest listening, respect for differing experiences of worship and spirituality, and humility about the trade-offs involved in any decision.

February 22 Called Congregational Meeting

In October, 2025, a petition was submitted to the Plymouth Congregational Church Council requesting a called meeting to vote on the proposed expansion of the sanctuary chancel. The petition was signed by 57 Plymouth members. Plymouth Church bylaws state that a called meeting must be scheduled if a petition is presented to Council with 10% of Plymouth’s membership signing the petition. This petition met the by-law requirement. In response to the petition, PCC Church Council has scheduled a called congregational meeting immediately following the 9:30 combined service on February 22.
