Where We Serve
Serve With Us
Plymouth Congregational Church serves its neighbors in Coconut Grove and beyond. We distribute meals at homeless shelters, read with elementary school children, restore local homes, collect food donations, offer resume-writing assistance, and take part in other community-building activities. We believe one of the most powerful ways to show our love for one another is through service, and we have found that serving together builds powerful bonds in our church community.
We offer many opportunities to serve through our Board of Outreach and Mission (BOOM), and those new to Plymouth are invited to participate. Sign up for an event or two, and learn more about the organizations we love to support here
Help us make a difference in Miami.
Dinner Service
Once a month, a team of Plymouth volunteers serves dinner at the Chapman Partnership Homeless Assistance Center in Miami, which offers meals and a comprehensive suite of programs and services to assist its residents on the path to self-sufficiency.
Home Rebuilding
A few times each year, Plymouth volunteers gather in Coconut Grove to help paint or refurbish a local home through Rebuilding Together Miami-Dade.

Plymouth members support 200 families with a monthly food collection for the Coconut Grove Crisis Food Pantry. Bring food donations on the third Sunday each month or use the button to donate online.

Dozens of Plymouth volunteers tutor elementary school children who participate in the annual summer reading camp at nearby Macedonia Missionary Baptist Church.
