You are invited to a very special birthday party on July 5 in the Fellowship Hall after service. Please come and celebrate with us!
John Dominic Crossan Study Group 
T he Crossan Study Group meets the second Wednesday of every Month. In July we will begin reading John Dominic Crossan’s book In Search of Paul. This book is available for purchase for $13. The Crossan book table for selling of Crossan books will only be set-up after services in Fellowship Hall on the first Sunday of each month. If anyone should want to purchase a book at another time please see Dick Berlo or Beverly Masek and we can accommodate your purchase on an individual basis.
We continue to gather at Grumpy's Cafe, across from the church parking lot, for a bite of dinner or dessert at 6:15 PM. Because Grumpy’s is now often too busy for us to find a quiet corner to play Mah Jong, we have begun to cross the street to find a quiet room in the church for competition. All are welcome to join in and learn this fun, exotic game (similar to rummy-type games) played with beautiful Chinese bone and bamboo tiles! Mark your calendar to join us Grumpy’s beforehand, or to join us for Mah Jong at the church at 7:00 PM. For details about the game, or to reserve a set to learn or play, contact Chaz Henderson at 216.621.9530.

...and,
finally, the spirit behind Yoga is “namaste” (acknowledging the divine in
you) and behind Thai Yoga Massage is “metta” (with loving kindness )...how
perfectly these fit into the family of Pilgrim Congregational Church! Yoga Classes at Pilgrim Church The yoga classes are open enrollment. . . you can join at anytime. . . and attend any of the classes in our schedule. We have had a great success with our class for “floor-challenged” folks and we certainly invite even those who feel intimidated at the thought of exercise to join this class! We
now have classes for beginner and intermediate level students, and offer several
styles of yoga. . . from long, slow meditative stretches to strengthening and
conditioning workouts. Please call Chaz Henderson at 216-621-9530
for more information on yoga styles and enrollment. Class Schedule
Come as often as you wish! Pilates is a wonderful and unique system of stretching and strengthening exercises designed to tone muscles, improve posture and increase flexibility and balance. The end result is a stronger core and streamlined body. Kimberly is an AFAA and AAAI/ISMA certified instructor, as well as the owner of Streamline Fitness, LLC, and has designed this class to appeal to the beginner and challenge the experienced exerciser. Leave a message in the office for Kimberly Barner to enroll. |
