Pilgrim UCC invites you to join us for our Annual Summerfest! Summerfest is a FREE community/family event, on August 11th, 11:30 am-2:30 pm at Pilgrim Congregational UCC, 2118 S Third, Bozeman MT. Summerfest is a great time of fun and fellowship with the community. Hot dogs, cotton candy and water fun among other things!

There will be a large inflatable waterslide, a bouncy house, yard games, food, and more!

Excited to see you there!

Worship and Communion at Pilgrim will be outdoors under the trees on the Northeast Lawn, if the weather permits it. We will enjoy a time of fellowship and fresh air with a little dose of nature thrown in. (The deer love it back there!) You can bring your comfy lawn chairs or we can provide a chair for you and we can worship together and have coffee afterwards.

Come worship with us at Soldier’s Chapel Next Sunday, July 21st at 11:00am. Pastor Laura Folkwein will be preaching at Soldier’s Chapel in Big Sky. The address is 47875 Gallatin Rd, Gallatin Gateway, MT 59730. We will be having a picnic gathering at Red Cliff Campground afterwards, so pack your picnic basket and join us! The address there is 41120 US-191, Gallatin Gateway, MT 59730.

If you don’t have the time or your car won’t make it to Big Sky right now, you are welcome to join Sarah Hollier and Kristina Bogar for an informal time of worship at Pilgrim here in Bozeman. It will be at the time our usual services are going on, only it will be in the Boyd Room. Zoom access will be available for this event.

Pride Sunday at Pilgrim is a celebration of LGBTQIA+ resilience, spirit and joy, in addition to a little pat on the back for ourselves as an “open and affirming” congregation since 2012. Open and Affirming means we celebrate, uplift and include the leadership and contributions of queer folks in the life and leadership of our congregation – as well as people of all genders, sexes, ages, physical and mental abilities racial and economic and spiritual identities and experiences. Join us for a morning of love and celebration.

Our collaborative team has decided to cancel the Downtown Bozeman Ecumenical VBS that was scheduled to be held at St. James Episcopal Church June 10-13, 2024.

However, the VBS at Living Waters United Methodist Church in Belgrade, using the same curriculum, will go forward as scheduled! If you or your child is registered for the Bozeman area VBS, we would like to extend you an invitation to join us in Belgrade at Living Waters UMC, located at 51 W Cameron Bridge Rd, Bozeman, MT 59718.  

If you are still interested in your child attending a VBS in Bozeman for that week (6/10-15, 9a-12p), Hope Lutheran has graciously agreed to work with us! You can register here to join Hope: https://hopebozeman.com/  

Please ask if you need accommodation for preschoolers, as Hope does not offer preschool programming, but younger siblings may be able to sneak in, with some notice. 

If you registered for Bozeman, and are unable to get to Living Waters, Belgrade, we are happy to issue a refund for your registration. Please email office@bozemanumc.org or call (406) 586-5413 and leave a message with the registrants’ name(s) and whether you would like to transfer to Living Waters, or be issued a refund. If you are a Youth or Adult volunteer, we hope you will consider transferring as well!
