Holy Week at Pilgrim

Pilgrim's traditional Tenebrae service is one of the most beautiful and solemn services of the year. During the service the sanctuary is darkened as we read the accounts of the last night of Jesus life on earth. This year we'll be reading from the Gospel of Luke. The service begins at 7:00.

On Friday evening, Pilgrim's choir, along with the choirs of Glen Avon Presbyterian Church and Peace United Church of Christ, will present Dubois' The Seven Last Words of Christ. The service begins at 7:00 and will be held in the sanctuary of Glen Avon church, 2105 Woodland Avenue.

Sunday morning Pilgrim celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ with a festive service at 10:00 a.m. There will be a continental breakfast at 9:00, courtesy of Jim and Teresa Peterson and family. Come for great music and a wondeful Easter morning!
