What a joy to share the Word of God and the familiar hymns they so love to sing! We go in small teams, someone to share a short message of 10 minutes or so, someone to play either piano, keyboard, or guitar, and others to help visit and pray with the people. We've been asked to pray for everything from marriages, to alcoholism, back problems, and reconciliation between family members. It's been wonderful ministry not only for them, but for us. At this point about 13 different people are committed to going once a month. We have several Sundays that could really benefit from bigger teams.
	We also have formal events throughout each month. Contact our church office at  office@pilgrimumc.org for a copy of our calendar and Pilgrims Progress Newsletter or download them here.   Our church is also used for a variety of community meetings:                 Local  Alanon Chapter                 Boy Scout Troops                 Community Clubs                 School Functions
