As many in the community are aware, Grace Church has suffered a great deal of turmoil and hurt in regard to its last two priests.
Most recently, many parishioners are upset over the way that Mother Joyce Scheyer was abruptly removed in early September.
The turmoil has left the congregation numb. The local leadership has advanced no plan for dealing with either the opportunities that Plainfield presents or the challenges -- especially financial -- that the the parish faces.
Something must be done.
Bishop Stokes will give all who attend an opportunity to discuss their questions and concerns about next steps for Grace Church, which has served the Plainfield community since 1852, long before its incorporation as a city.
The service begins at 9:30 AM and is usually over about 10:45 AM.
Grace Church is at East 7th Street and Cleveland Avenue and is an accessible facility. Parking available on the street or in the public lot across 7th Street from the church.
