Join us for our annual summer planning meeting from 9 a.m. until 11 a.m. We will be reviewing our work so far in becoming an antiracist congregation. We will also explore ways to broaden our circle even further as we strive to truly welcome everyone.

Celebrating Juneteenth! Saturday, June 14
On Saturday, June 14, you are invited to attend a Village of Oak Park Juneteenth celebratory picnic from 11 AM to 3 PM on the south lawn behind Village Hall. When you finish your donut shift, mosey on over to listen to some music, have a hot dog, and commune with your community! Pilgrim’s Anti-Racism Steering Committee is showing our support for this Juneteenth picnic by providing soft drinks and juice. At 6 PM, there will also be a flag raising with special music and the Kuumba Kids, an African and Caribbean dance troupe. Then, on Sunday, June 15, come and worship with us in person! You’ll hear music from Pilgrim’s Juneteenth Singers, visit a poster display about the history of this day, hear Rev. Tim Wolfe preach, and – no peeking! – Have some special eats during fellowship hour. This is a day thoroughly worthy of community celebration!

GIVE
The benefits of a generous life are demonstrative, verifiable and authentic. At the end of the day we seem to be hard-wired to give. That’s the way God created us. God, the original giver, the one who held nothing back invites us to participate in the joy of giving.
