Grateful Hearts
Stewardship Campaign – Fall 2008/Winter 2009

Pilgrim Lutheran Church has an enduring history of ministry in our community. For 35 years, our church has provided a warm and engaging place of welcome, worship, service to others, and spiritual growth. Eager for ministry, our church continues to seek ways to live out its calling in this community.

Currently, our church’s facilities are inadequate for our ministry programs. Due to space constraints, we have limited flexibility in the scheduling of our meeting and activity rooms both on Sunday mornings and throughout the week. Christian Education classes are required to meet off-site, and we have no room to grow many of our programs.

In order to continue our mission as God’s people, our “Grateful Hearts” campaign seeks to expand our church facilities to serve the ministries of our church. Our building project supports the following areas:

Christian Education

  • Provide more room for Christian Education classes for all ages

  • improve space for forums and other education activities

Children and Youth

  • Better accommodate activities for children and youth
  • Improve scheduling opportunities for activities on our church site (vs., having to hold events away from the church)
  • Provide better dedicated space for our Preschool program

Community Service and Outreach

  • Provide space from which to serve current and future ministry programs
  • Increase opportunities for us extend the reach of God’s love in our community and beyond
  • Create larger, better quality storage areas to support church and community activities
Welcome and Accessibility
  • Provide adequate room for all of our church and community activities so that we can welcome members and visitors alike
  • Meet safety and accessibility codes in all buildings and entrances
  • Provide better office spaces from which to support our ministry programs
Fellowship and Hospitality
  • Allow full usage of our Fellowship Hall on Sunday mornings
  • Ensure greater flexibility and options for scheduling meetings, events, and gatherings
