Rev. Amie Stuart Giguere

The congregation voted unanimously to call Rev. Giguere as their next settled pastor at a congregational meet- ing on January 15, following that day’s worship service, at which she was the guest preacher. Rev. Giguere earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in education. Early in her career, she was a public school teacher, and then the director of children and youth ministries at her home church in Tolland, Connecticut. She earned her Master of Divinity degree, with honors, from Andover Newton Theological School in 2018. She joins Pilgrim Church after serving as acting associate pastor at the First Church of Christ Congregational in West Hartford, Connecticut. She also has been adjunct faculty at Eastern Connecticut State University.

During early dialogue with the search committee, Rev. Giguere noted, “Historically, Christianity undergoes a revolution every 500 years. We’re in that time now. As a result, some worry about the future of the Church. I see it as a wonderful opportunity.”

Marcia Witherell | Bookkeeper

A perfect fit for Pilgrim, Marcia is a computer programmer who loves working with numbers.  As a department head at Kripalu in Lenox, for 12 years she was responsible for balancing the books and accounts receivable.  When she moved to the Cape she became the Treasurer/Bookkeeper for First Church in Harwich and was also employed at the Yarmouth Town Hall working in the Clerks & Collectors offices.  Thinking she had finally retired in 2019, she was asked if she would be interested in coming to Pilgrim. The rest is history.
In addition to serving the Church, Marcia raises golden retrievers.
