Missions

Keeping others in our minds
and in our hearts.

Throughout the year, donations are given to selected organizations depending on their needs, goals, and mission. We welcome you to join us in this spirit of generosity and community support, knowing that together we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of many. Your involvement, whether through giving or volunteering, helps extend our reach and impact beyond the walls of our church. Everyone is invited to participate and share in this journey of compassion and service.

  • Every 4th Sunday, all $5 bills in the offertory fund food for the needy. Join us monthly to help provide meals and hope to families facing hunger. Your generosity makes a real difference. Thank you!

  • Pilgrim Congregational Church and local churches serve free Sunday lunches from 11:30 to 12:00 for the homeless and needy, offering food, community, and support. Volunteers prepare and serve meals, promoting cooperation and respect.

  • Backpacks with school supplies are collected and distributed each fall to help students start the school year prepared. Volunteers work to support families in need, promoting both academic success and community spirit.

  • Food and other essential items are collected throughout the year, and dedicated volunteers thoughtfully assemble them into festive Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter baskets. Each basket is filled with care and compassion, providing holiday meals and seasonal comfort to individuals and families in need within our community. This effort ensures that everyone can share in the joy and spirit of the holidays, regardless of their circumstances.

  • Operation Christmas Child is a project organized by Samaritan’s Purse, an international Christian relief organization.
    Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes are due at church no later than November 10th to be brought to the distribution center.   
    Shoeboxes with small gifts such as toys, school supplies, hygiene items, and notes of encouragement. These shoeboxes are then collected, processed, and distributed to children in need around the world, regardless of their background, to share both joy and the message of God’s love.
