About Us

Called by the Holy Spirit,

we are an intergenerational community of 

worship and service

that invites the people

of Santa Monica and beyond

to flourish in the love of Jesus Christ

through Word and Sacraments.

Our Pillars

At Pilgrim, our core ethos revolves around the profound significance of connection – not only with God but also with one another. These connections serve as the bedrock of our community, anchoring us in what truly matters. At the heart of our communal identity lie our pillars, each embodying a fundamental aspect of our shared journey.

Connected Meaningfully in Worship

We prioritize forging deep connections in our worship experiences, recognizing the transformative power of communal spiritual engagement. Through shared rituals and meaningful encounters with the Divine, we cultivate a sense of unity that elevates our worship beyond individual experiences.

Connected in Spiritual Formation through Intergenerational Christian Education

A place where we honor the wisdom of children, the inquisitiveness of youth, the thoughtfulness of adults, and the knowledge of elders as gifts of the Spirit.

Connected Sustainably to Our Future through Our Gifts and Resources

Understanding the responsibility to steward our resources wisely, we strive for sustainable connections that extend beyond the present. By conscientiously using our gifts and resources, we invest in a future that reflects our values and ensures the longevity of our community’s impact.

Connected through Witness and Service to Our Neighborhood

Our outreach extends to the neighborhood, where our connections manifest through acts of witness and service. By actively engaging with and contributing to the well-being of our local community, we demonstrate our commitment to embodying the principles of Jesus Christ.

Connected in Partnership with Pacifica Christian High School

Collaboration is key to our vision which is why we are partners in ministry with Pacifica Christian High School. Through shared goals, we strengthen the bonds between our institutions, creating a mutually supportive community grounded in the Word and witness of Jesus Christ.

Connected in Care with One Another

Within our community, care is not merely a sentiment but a lived experience. We prioritize connection through genuine care, ensuring that each member is supported, heard, and valued. This interconnected web of support forms the fabric of our compassionate community.
