NOTE some variations in our worship schedule:
-Worship services are not usually held on the 5th Sunday of the month. This is a “Sabbath Sunday” for Pilgrims, when Pilgrims can gather informally, take a walk, have a leisurely breakfast or do any life-giving activity they choose.
-We occasionally have a worship service at the park or in someone’s backyard, or we divide up into small groups and meet at homes.
