Pilgrim Congregational UCC Bozeman  extravagantly welcomes you to our Pride service June 7th, 10am, where we live out Jesus’ gracious hospitality to all.   Our welcome embraces both those we invite to regularly participate in our congregation, as well as those outside the church who wish to visit to celebrate Pride with us. Our prayer, our hope is to be a church whose doors are open to God’s children of different cultures, races, genders, ages, sexual orientations, abilities, economic situations, and theological traditions. Wherever you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here!

Pride-a-Palooza is here again June 6th and It is a great event.

Social Justice is looking for volunteers to help staff Pilgrim’s table at Pride-a-Palooza on Saturday June 6 from 10-3 or 4 at Lindley Park. We have some very fun activities planned and would welcome any Pilgrims who’d like to get involved. Thank you!

Please let Chris Stucky or Susan Reisch know if you have questions or would like to sign up!

If you have young children, preschool to 5th graders, who love to celebrate Easter by hunting for some eggs, please bring your baskets and join us at 11:15am in the foyer of the church. We will go over the rules and then everyone will head outside for the fun. This hunt goes very quickly, so dont be late, or you may miss it altogether. We look forward to seing you there!

If you prefer a more traditional service for Easter, we offer one at 10:00am. Megan and Sue Makeever will be providing our Music for us. This mother and daughter play beautifully together. If you can’t make it in to church, we offer this service online as well. Let’s celebrate together!

Come join us for our Sunrise Service to celebrate Easter. It is a truly special way to start the day. Most of the service is held outside around the firepit, so dress warmly and bring your chair and blanket. We can’t wait to meet you there!
