WELCOME TO PILGRIM UNITED CHURCH
If it is your first time at our church or you are a regular, all are welcome.
I hope you find our website informational.
CLOSED: Due to the current Provincial Health Emergency, Pilgrim United Church will be closed until at least the first week of March. An update on the reopening will be posted by February 28, 2021.
The Church Board has been constantly monitoring the COVID situation in Edmonton and we’ve always believed and continue to believe that we have a safe process for holding services. Alberta still has high levels of COVID spread though and while the Government is starting a phased reopening of the economy, our Board is taking a wait and see approach, given the new strains of COVID-19 in our province. We will revisit the state of the pandemic in Alberta at our February 24, 2021 Unified Board of Directors Meeting.
Our Board feels a strong duty to do our part for the congregation and our community. We understand how disappointing this can be but in these most unusual times we need to follow every safety measure being asked of all Albertans and show that we are working together with them to be successful. The path back to a safe community will only be successful if we all work together.

Prayers for those facing financial difficulties
Written by Jackie St. Goddard
Prayers for those facing financial difficulties
Written by Jackie St. Goddard
Holy One, in this time of economic uncertainty, we hold up in prayer all those facing financial difficulties due to job layoffs or work place shut downs. All those that were on the margins and are now faced with even greater financial problems. Those who can’t make ends meet and are forced to visit the food banks every week, simply to feed their families.
We pray for the people forced to live on the streets because they can’t pay their rent and we pray for those who have to make the choice, to pay the rent or buy food.
Please bring new opportunities and resources so all may live in dignity.
Lord, help us to see those around us, we know we still live in abundance compared to most of the world, but we too are nervous about our future, our job loses, our fixed incomes and the economy that changes everyday.
Show us the light, give us hope and always guide us to help others in your name. Amen.
