New to Pilgrim?
Pastor Mary will host a Newcomer Gathering over lunch following worship on August 3. All who have been visiting in worship this year are welcome to attend to learn more about our congregation, about deeper ways to engage in our ministry, and how to become a member of the congregation (for those who feel called to do so.) It’s also a wonderful opportunity to grow relationships with other newcomers as well as longer-time members.
See you at the August Picnic!
We’re excited to host our Church and School picnic at Saluda Shoals on August 24, following worship. It’ll be a great time to eat, play, and renew our relationships. To those who are registered, we’ll send a few more details to you before that date to help you prepare. If you’re panicked that you forgot to sign up, just get in touch with the church office!
