Stewardship
We love Pilgrim Congregational Church. For its history and traditions. For its mission and ministries. For the memories we’ve made - and will continue to make. We love Pilgrim because here we are safe, respected, and accepted. Because this church stands for justice and its voice, for equality. Because it supports us both in joy and in pain.
Why pledge? Your annual pledge supports everything we do at Pilgrim: our mission and ministries both at home and abroad, the upkeep of our historic church building, and the salaries of our ministers and staff. Your gifts keep our beautiful sanctuary alive with worship, music, and fellowship. We thank you in advance for your thoughtfulness, generosity, and commitment to Pilgrim!
Annual pledges are the financial foundation of our church, our single most important source of funding. Your pledge enables us to create a viable budget - something random giving simply cannot. The budget determines our year’s activities and what we can accomplish as a church. Currently, more than half of our annual operating budget must come from annual pledges.
If you consider Pilgrim your church home - whether or not you are a member - we hope you will express your support by pledging. So our worship, mission, and ministries may continue and grow.
