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.”
Sunday Worship
Every Sunday, 9:00 a.m. Worship in Community together
Our worship includes traditional hymns, choir anthem and on the first Sunday each month we celebrate the Lord’s Supper by intinction.
While Hurricane Ian damage, led to Sunday Worship currently in our Community Center, we anticipate returning to the Sanctuary soon!
Bible Study
Every Sunday, 10:15 a.m. in the Library
This small group continues to read and discuss the gospel of Luke. This study is closely examining the ministry of Jesus in the same fashion as our Sunday sermons are studying the expansion of the early church.
Each lesson stands alone and visitors are welcomed to see if this is a good learning opportunity for them.
Missions
The Little Food Pantry: For those in need, and for those who wish to give. Take what you need. Give what you can. Together, we care for one another.
Pilgrims make PBJ Sandwiches for the Homeless Coalition each month (4th Thursdays each month) and look forward to reopening the food pantry!
Community Support
Care Group meets Tuesdays,12:00 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. in the office conference room. Sometimes simply speaking your heart in a nonjudgmental group can be deeply healing.
Missions supports our local community as well as offering financial support beyond Port Charlotte.
Women’s Fellowship
The March meeting will be held on March 19, at 10:00 a.m. in the Church Library. There will be devotion, prayer and the group will continue in their video study with the lesson: Places of the Old Testament. The group will then adjourn for lunch at a nearby restaurant.
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.
