Covenant, Vision, Mission, Faith

The covenant by which The Church of the Pilgrimage exists as a distinct body and which every Member accepts is as follows:


We are united in striving to know the will of God, and to walk in God’s ways, made known or to be made known to us. We hold it to be the mission of The Church of Christ to proclaim the gospel to all humankind, laboring for the progress of knowledge, the promotion of justice, the reign of peace, and the realization of human community. And we look with faith for the triumph of righteousness and the life everlasting. Amen.

We seek to live in God’s ways, made known and to be made known to us in following Jesus Christ, partnering with the Holy Spirit, working for justice, and affirming all people as children of God.

The Church of the Pilgrimage, as an Open and Affirming and inclusive congregation of the United Church of Christ, is united in our desire to be pilgrims and beacons of light for God. We equip all ages for life and witness through:

  • Inspiring and inclusive worship

  • Christian education, discipleship, and spiritual formation for all ages

  • Mission and outreach that reflects God’s love

The Church of the Pilgrimage accepts, as its own, the Statement of Faith adopted by the General Synod of the United Church of Christ assembled in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on July 4, 1961, as adapted in 1981 in doxology form for the twenty-fifth anniversary of the United Church of Christ. This Statement of Faith is not a test but an expression of the spirit in which the Church interprets the Word of God.
