Two weeks ago, we held our annual meeting for Pilgrim Church. During that meeting we heard from Financial Resources and Stewardship about the financial state of our church for the coming year. We have cut corners and reduced budgets in every conceivable area possible, and the numbers still came up just a little bit short…we…
Two Weeks and Counting! With the Pilgrim Church Annual Meeting only 2 weeks away, the Stewardship Committee is trying to wrap up the pledges for 2024. As of today, we still have just under $10,000.00 to make up in order to meet our budgetary needs for the coming year. If each of the remaining 9…
We’re Almost There! Tonight was one of those nights that makes one truly marvel at the dedication of the many members that volunteer their time and energy to lead Pilgrim Church throughout the year.

The Stewardship committee wants to thank everyone who has sent in their pledges so far. We are making good progress toward our budgeting goals, but we still have a long way to go. As most of you probably know, we will need to cover a shortfall of 25 lost pledges in the coming years to…
“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” – Mother Teresa As we enter our third week of the Stewardship pledge campaign, the committee is grateful for everyone who has already made their pledge commitment to Pilgrim Church. We have 15 pledges or 20% of our…
A few weeks ago, while walking my dog in our summer community of Cotuit, I passed by the local federated church and noticed that the service started at 10:00. I’ve passed this church many times during our tenure in Cotuit but had never attended the services. I made a spontaneous decision to secure my dog…
