Plainfield Bible Church holds root in a Bible study that took place decades ago in the home of Dr. John Sproule. Additional families began attending. The result was clear- a desire for an independent church to be established.
Since the birth of this fellowship in the early 1960s, growth has followed. Several men served as Pastor during the first two decades. In the following years, PBC experienced stability. This led to the purchase of 16 acres and a facility constructed in phases including the most recent, a multi-purpose addition constructed in 2006. The campus is located in the heart of Plainfield near the intersection of Dan Jones Road and US 40.
For nearly 40 years, current Pastor Emeritus Kevin Kottke served (and continues to serve) the church faithfully, and through God’s grace, laid the foundation, theologically and pastorally, for this work of the gospel at PBC.
Pastor James D'Souza and his family joined PBC in the summer of 2023. He earned his Master of Divinity degree from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and is currently enrolled in the Doctor of Ministry program in Expository Preaching at The Master’s Seminary. He is an ACBC certified biblical counselor.
