I recently visited this church and learned that my friend was turned away from baptism because she…read moreis in a same-sex marriage. The pastor PERSONALLY called her and told her he will not be able to baptize her because she's in a same-sex marriage. However, I know a few unmarried couples (who sleep together and fornicate at night) who were baptized at this church. I know someone who attends this church who likes to party hard on Saturday nights. There is someone at this church who is a registered s3x offender. I know someone who was baptized at this church who is clinically obese... So they WON'T baptize someone who is in a gay marriage, but they WILL baptize you if you fornicate with your boyfriend/girlfriend. they WILL baptize you if you get blacked out drunk every Saturday but sober up by Sunday. they WILL baptize you if you abuse children behind closed doors. they WILL baptize you if you are a glutton... Basically, the pastor will baptize ALL people who do things considered unholy privately and quietly BEHIND CLOSED DOORS. But NOT people who are open and proud about those same unholy things people do quietly behind closed doors. Clear?

I started attending th church back in 2016 when Pastor Choco oversaw the church. It's not the same…read moreanymore with the campus pastor. A lot has changed. Pastor Choco has a heart for people. I am looking for a new church

I visited this church as part of Open House Chicago, the Chicago Architecture Center's annual…read moreweekend where they partner with places in the city and nearby suburbs to allow visitors in to wander through their spaces. Pilgrim is a beautiful and historic church. The current church was built in 1889, and while the original part of the church still stands it has been significantly expanded in the century and a half since. It was interesting to learn that the stone (at least some) was quarried in the middle of Chicago; I wouldn't have expected that in the city. What was the original church is now a chapel. The windows in that part of the building are breathtaking. They're also original to the building, and were so perfectly balanced that they open with just a touch and no squeak at all. The sanctuary is built in a stadium seating style which means there are no bad seats anywhere, with clear sight lines to the pulpit. One of the coolest parts of the church is what they call the parlor. They've added a wall that will allow for overflow seating, and when they don't need that space it functions as the nursery school, church offices, and parlor. Overall, the building is beautiful. They have a large parking lot in which they host a farmers market; they also earn money from allowing visitors to downtown Oak Park pay for parking. They added a few years ago an outdoor sculpture of rainbow colored doors, a reaction to the Pulse massacre, to let students at Oak Park River Forest HS down the street know that they are welcome. Although I wouldn't come here for worship, I understand they sometimes have concerts in this church, and I think it would be pretty cool to come to one and hear how it sounds.

Visited this church's parking lot because they hosted Oak Park's Great Food Truck Rally of 2013. In…read morereading up on this place, I saw that they're supposed to have amazing homemade doughnuts. And they do. Oh, they do. They sell three kinds: cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, and plain. I tried the cinnamon sugar and the plain. The cool thing about the plain is that it still has a nice, mellow flavor. They include a flier about the church on the bag, and it's the most welcoming, all-inclusive church flier I've ever seen. I'm not really a churchy person, but I definitely appreciate it anytime someone sincerely tries to make me feel welcome. They also offer tours!
