Pilgrim in winter

Pilgrim Church designed in 1958 by the firm of architect Royal Barry Wills. Its style is influenced by that of the Early American meeting house. Pilgrim is a traditional New England clapboard church situated in a suburban setting on 8 acres which is primarily woodlands.

Sanctuary

The sanctuary is simple and restful with large, clear windows opening to the outdoors. (God creates our "stained glass" as the leaves turn color or the snow falls outside.) There are comfortable pews with several cuts for wheelchairs, a sound system for the hearing impaired, an excellent Hook and Hastings pipe organ, and plenty of parking. Pilgrim Congregational Church is handicapped accessible.

Sun Room

Pilgrim Hall

The overall architectural theme of Pilgrim church is "light." From the sanctuary to the social hall, the spaces have large windows that allow natural light to stream in.

"Letting our Souls Catch Up with our Bodies" (Mark 1:29-39)

There was once an American traveler who planned a safari to Africa. He was that typical Type-A American tourist, who many of us may be and who I admittedly am when I travel. We do our research about this travel destination and we have a timetable, maps, and a clear agenda of the things we need to see and do. Some local people had even been hired to carry some of the traveler's supplies as they trekked throughout the land—it was that level of planning.

FROM OUR PASTOR

As our Annual Meeting approaches, and I reflected on the various things we've done together in my Pastor's Report, I feel excited. We've had a great year so far. It's been a year of transitions, of beginnings and endings, but I sense excitement and hope when we're together on Sunday mornings and when we perform the business of the church as the body of Christ.
