Sunday Program

Our Sunday program is held 10:15 – 11:30 a.m. The first 15 minutes of the program include both adults and children for welcoming words, songs, and announcements. While we don’t currently have classes for children or teens, know that families are always welcome. Sunday speakers and programs tend to interest an intergenerational gathering. Families with young children may choose to move to the playroom/nursery during the program as fits their needs. Audio of the program is available there.

Refreshments and fellowship time follow the program. We’d like to meet you, and hope that you’ll drop by for a visit! We are a friendly group, but not "pushy." We attend church in a variety of styles of clothing; you are welcome to wear business attire, or shorts and sandals, or anything in between.


Other Activities

In addition to our programs, there are adult religious education classes, as well as social activities and committee meetings.

We have been involved in a variety of community action projects. Currently, we are supporting the Ralph Reeder Food Shelf in New Brighton. See Foodshelf for more information. We also support the Community Support Center, and Alexandra House.


Ministry

We are a lay-led congregation with no minister, though we have often employed Unitarian Universalist (UU) ministerial student interns. Members of our fellowship are licensed as Counselors to perform many ministerial functions, such as weddings and dedication of children.


Congregational Newsletter

We publish a monthly newsletter, Pilgrim’s Progress, which contains information about our church family and upcoming events. It’s our best source of information about ongoing activities. You can subscribe to receive electronic or paper copies of it; just e-mail the newsletter editor. Be sure to include your e-mail address (for electronic copies) or mailing address, including ZIP Code (for paper copies). You can also view our newsletter online.


More information about our congregation

Like most Unitarian Universalist congregations, Pilgrim House is a spiritually diverse community. Our members identify themselves as Jewish, humanist, Christian, pagan, atheist, agnostic, monotheist, and "none of the above." In general, though, we believe that there is no exclusive single religious truth and that life is a spiritual journey best experienced with others. We welcome those of any race, ethnicity, or affectional orientation.

Want to know more about what to expect in our congregation? Have a question about Pilgrim House? Why not email us? We’re friendly! We’ll also respond to general questions about Unitarian Universalism. We look forward to hearing from you.
