About Us

Pilgrim Church, a congregation of the United Church of Christ, is comprised of people just like you – single, married, divorced, widowed, senior citizens, youth, children, traditional and blended families. We come from diverse ethnic, racial, and economic backgrounds. Some of us were raised in church and can’t recall a time when the church wasn’t a vital part of our lives, while for others the whole church experience is new and somewhat unfamiliar. For still others, the church was once central, but they drifted away and only recently returned to their faith.

What We Do

“To Help People KNOW Christ Personally and GROW in Their Faith.”

Pilgrim Women’s Fellowship

April service projects for this energetic group of Pilgrim Women include visits to Pilgrim homebound members and delivery of an Eastertime surprise, contributing to the Welcome Basket Mission project for Habitat for Humanity, and making ourselves available to Joyful Noise Learning Center staff to volunteer as needed.

Our April meeting date has been moved to the 4th Thursday, April 24 at 10:00 a.m. Our Bible study continues in discussion of the Epistles of John. We have added a field trip at the end of the meeting to visit a new computer training program for seniors held at the Peachland Goodwill store. After the tour we will have lunch at a nearby restaurant.

The next Book Club will meet on May 1 at 6:00 p.m. The book to be reviewed is “Take Me With You” by Catherine Ryan Hyde, published in 2014.

Joyful Noise Learning Center

Since 2004, Joyful Noise Learning Center has been a ministry of Pilgrim Church. We believe childhood is precious. In a world where children are often forced to grow up too soon we offer a community of gentleness and safety where Christian values of kindness, honestly, and respect of God and others are taught with loving care.
