Pilgrim Congregational United Church of Christ - Bozeman, Montana

Pilgrim Church, of liberal mind and spirit, incorporates a diversity of lifestyles within our fellowship. Christ is present as the light of truth within every person.  Thus we proclaim the sanctity of the individual as we support each other's spiritual pilgrimage.  We seek to be a church that is intellectually honest, personally enriching, mutually supportive, and socially responsible.

Pilgrim's Music Program enhances our worship services, offering a wide variety of music throughout each month.  The music program at Pilgrim offers something for everyone with only a small individual commitment allowing for greater participation by all. 

Every Sunday at Pilgrim features the following:

• Hymn Sing precedes each Sunday 10:00AM worship service under the excellent leadership of Don Wilson, Denny Lee and Bob Gammill, Susan Wise, Troy and Cary Hamon.
• Meditation Music then sets the mood for worship and is provided by a group of talented musicians: Tom Lee, Jerry Makeever, Matt Makeever, Megan Makeever, Sue Makeever, Ilse-Mari Lee, Julie Gosswiller, Nancy Wilson, Quartet Plus, Vance Thurston, Kate Bryan, Groovin' Women, Susan Wise, Bob Gammill and other guests.
• Hymnists Nancy Wilson, Ilse-Mari Lee and Ellen Stephenson provide piano, organ, and guitar music for all Sundays and special events (Christmas Eve, Good Friday) with Vivian Stiff and Jane Hawks serving as substitutes when needed.
• Coffee Hour Pianists are Laura Sweeney, Vivian Stiff, Megan Makeever and Valoree Overstreet.
• Our early Sunday morning worship service "Seeking the Spirit" (8:30 AM Sep - May) has music provided by Vance Thurston, Alan and Karen Leech, Rich and Tana Mayo, and Nancy Wilson.

Pilgrim's Music Program features a unique music model for worship services which allows for a variety of participation by many talented people.  Each Sunday of the month offers a different musical experience.

Chamber Music Sunday - First Week
Chamber Music Sunday features Wyndeharpe with Sue Makeever on flute and Nancy Wilson on harp. The rest of the talented Makeever family will sometimes join in. Occasionally, Ilse-Mari Lee will add her cello.

Folk/Gospel/Acoustical Sunday - Fourth Week
Folk/Gospel/Acoustical Sunday features a wide variety of musicians interested in sharing their love of music.  Kate Bryan coordinates all the folk/gospel/acoustical music for Fourth Sundays.  Ellen Stephenson directs the Children's Choir (aka "C.O.O.L.") which also sings on Fourth Sundays.

Groovin' Women, directed by Kate Bryan, often performs on Fourth Sundays. Groovin' Women welcomes women of all ages.  You don't have to sight-read music, be a member of Pilgrim, or even be a great singer.  You just need to have a desire to have some fun, sing a little and get to know some really spirited women.  Childcare is available for mothers needing assistance with children during rehearsals.

Special Music Sunday - Fifth Week
Special Music Sundays feature members of the congregation as well as local musicians performing special music for worship services on Fifth Sundays throughout the year, and every Sunday in June, July and August.  Connie Cash arranges this superb special music throughout the year.
