Welcome to Pilgrim Congregational Church
At the start of every Sunday morning service we say - Whoever you are and wherever you are on life’s journey you are welcome here. You are a child of God and precious in God’s sight.
This sense of welcome is at the core of everything we believe and hold dear.

Maybe you are hoping to find a place where you can ask questions and find your own faith path. Maybe you are you are looking for a new spiritual home.

Sunday Service
November 1st, 2026 10AM
The Scripture Lessons for the Twenty-Third Sunday after Pentecost are:
Joshua 3:7-17 and Psalm 107:1-7, 33-37 or
Micah 3:5-12 and Psalm 43
1 Thessalonians 2:9-13
Matthew 23:1-12
This week’s scriptures highlight themes of transition, faith, and living lives worthy of God. They portray God’s transformative power, guiding people through moments of uncertainty into new beginnings. The imagery of crossing rivers and turning desolate lands into abundance reflects God’s steadfast presence and provision. These texts also call for authenticity and humility, urging us to align our actions with our faith and embrace a life of servanthood. Together, they remind us that God’s guidance empowers us to face challenges, move forward in faith, and live in ways that reflect the kin-dom of God.
This is the season of Ordinary Time. “Ordinary” doesn’t mean typical or humdrum. Rather, it comes from the word “ordinal,” meaning “related to a series.” Think of Ordinary Time as an ordered, deliberate, six-month step-by-step pilgrimage through the story of Jesus’ life. This year, Matthew is our guide. The liturgical color for the pastor's stole and paraments (cloth hanging from the pulpit and lectern) is green. This symbolizes growth in the church.
