Pilgrim Preschool was originally established in 1954 as a ministry of Pilgrim Congregational Church, United Church of Christ to families and children of our community.
We are aware of the importance that our Heavenly Father has placed on children and the responsibility for their care and nurturing.
We provide programs of instruction, which meet the needs of the whole person in spirit, soul, and body.
We believe that during the early years the child goes through the most rapid period of growth.
In everything we do, we are allowing children to experience who the Creator is.
In knowing who He is, they achieve the purpose that He has for their lives.
"Our children too shall serve Him, for they shall hear from us about the wonders of the Lord." Our Mission is to provide a quality Christian education for the children in our care ages 6 weeks to Pre-K. Work in unison with families to meet the needs of the child and prepare them for their future.
Expose children to learning activities that help develop the whole child: spiritually, intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically.
