Pioneer Offices Closes  —  

for the Juneteeth holiday. We will reopen on Friday June 20.

 

For the Love of an Animal

What do you say we shift gears for a few Sabbaths? Last fall it was “American Apocalypse.” This winter it was, “The Maker of All Things Loves and Wants Me.” But with springtime chomping at the bits to break out all over the land, let's celebrate the “Maker of all things” in the context of the wonderful little (and sometimes not so little) animals He has created for our blessing.

Foster Baskets for Berrien County

This spring, our Grow Groups ministry is leading a project to put together a gift basket for each active foster family in Berrien County (75 total). These families are meeting a very special need in our community, and Pioneer wants to support them in their love on the move.

Happy Anniversary

Although I don’t suppose “happy” is the appropriate adjective when you’re talking about the one-year anniversary of the Covid-19 lockdown in Michigan, at Andrews, and with the Pioneer Memorial Church. Twelve months ago—who can forget the warp speed with which leaders and people alike, faculty and students alike, all of us alike—very much alike in our foreboding uncertainty (outright fear, I’m sure, for some) of what was happening to our nation, our community, our congregation—we were all catapulted into the strange new world of “lockdown.”

Women's Ministries Easter Reflections

The Women's Ministries Team invites you to join our Easter Reflections from March 25 to April 4, 2021. Each day you will receive a meditation on the application of one of the Fruits of the Spirit in our lives as illustrated in the story of the Death and Resurrection of Jesus. We encourage you to receive this daily short blessing by signing up online, or text "Easter" to 269-281-2345.

Offering for June 21, 2025

Pioneer Operating Budget

One of the most exciting passages I have discovered is found in Malachi. It says, “‘Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it’” (Malachi 3:10, NKJV).

Michigan Advance Partner Offering

The February 27, 2021 offering is for Michigan Advance Partners (MAP). This is the Michigan Conference offering taken up on the fourth Sabbath of every month. This requested MAP offering is separate from and above and beyond our regular Tithe offering and the separate "Combined Budget" offering for our local church expense. The MAP offering has been a most important Michigan Conference offering since 1978 when leading laymen recognized a financial need at Conference level and established the Michigan Conference Lay Advisory Program.

Children's Worship Event

Children's Worship is back! Join Rich Aguilera for a fun, action-packed, special worship time for kids and families! This is free and open to all. Kids must be accompanied by an adult. Please wear a mask and social distance as labeled on the pews.

Saturday, February 27 at 6:00 PM
Location: Pioneer Memorial Church Sanctuary

Pathfinder Sabbath

Pioneer's Evergreen Pathfinder Club is part of a world-wide co-ed scouting type organization for children in Grades 5-12 sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Our Pathfinder club is the oldest club in the state of Michigan founded in 1952. This Sabbath we feature our Pathfinder Club as they lead us in worship. Join us online or in person at 9:00 AM and 11:45 AM.
