BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO RENT
First, ask yourself, “Are we a good fit?”
Because what happens on our campus ultimately reflects on our congregation and our purpose, let’s make sure we’re a good fit for each other.
As a Christian community in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, we are committed to the gospel of Jesus Christ that expresses love and hospitality for all people. We do not condone any illegal substances, hate speech, or advocacy of violent acts that cause physical, mental, or spiritual harm to others.
Because we adhere to the separation of church and state, political rallies that favor one candidate over another are not permitted.
Open and trusting discussions of opposing views on issues are encouraged and hoped for.
If you have concerns about this value statement or would like to discuss it further, please contact our Pastor,
Pastor Mary Anderson at (803) 359-9421.
Thank you for considering Pilgrim Lutheran Church (Pilgrim) as a potential location for your event.
