WELCOME NEW MEMBERS!
All Pilgrims has welcomed SEVEN new members within the past month!  Be sure to give a special welcome to Joe Murillo, Chris Bodrie, Chris Criswell, Jamie Currin, Steven Lyerla, James McDermott and Dino Pacilli.
The Spirit Is a Movin'!
In the month of June we experience the joining of new
 members, a congregational meeting to approve a new
slate of Council leaders, Pride week and activities, and a baptism.  The Community Supper ministry on Thursdays has hit a new high of guests and meals - 150 and over 250.  David Paul and Kathy Dawson are completing their facilitation of a terrific class on Christians and Islam.  While these are only a few things going on at All Pilgrims, they give us example of our Pentecost Spirit.
APCC Men Will RETREAT
...to move forward!

Community Supper Milestone
After just over a year of weekly Thursday meals, the Community Supper served its ten-thousandth meal in May!  The number of guests continues to grow, and we set another record in May when we served over 150 guests at a single supper!  For more details and to learn more about summer intern opportunities, CLICK HERE.
College of Spirituality Class:
Change Your Mind, Change Your World
Everyone is born with a set of thinking errors that make achieving their goals very hard, if not impossible, to achieve.  However, these misperceptions can be restructured into accurate visions of who we are.
 

In this class we will identify these universal thinking errors and discover solutions to change them into more accurate perceptions of who you are and who you can become.

 

Facilitator David Ezell is a licensed therapist and former adjunct professor of psychology at the City University of New York.

Remembering Kelsey Rennebohm

All Pilgrims offers its thoughts and prayers to the family and friends of Kelsey Rennebohm, a graduate student at Boston College, who died in a tragic bicycle accident on June 1.  Kelsey was the daughter of Craig and Barb Rennebohm.  Craig (former Pastor of Pilgrim Congregational), is Mental Health Chaplain at The Mental Health Chaplaincy.

Rennebohm was a gifted student and an experienced teacher who worked to provide high-quality instruction and support services for all children.  A 2006 honors graduate of Barnard College, Rennebohm was enrolled full-time in the Lynch School's counseling psychology program.  Prior to attending BC, she had worked for two years as a teacher in New York City.

LGBT Study on U.S. Healthcare Systems
Researchers at the University of Washington are working to understand the current experiences of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender (LGBT) couples when one partner is seriously ill.  They are hoping their results will inform public policies, ensuring that LGBT couples have access to their partners and can participate in critical decision-making.
