Pilgrim Baptist Church  Pilgrim Baptist Church (Winnipeg, Manitoba)

The Pilgrim Baptist Church, located in Winnipeg Manitoba is strongly identified with that city's Black Community. Since 1935, the Pilgrim congregation has worshipped from its present location at 41 Maple Street.

At one time Pilgrim was located at the centre of one of Winnipeg's residential districts, near the Canadian Railway Centre. More recently, with the growth of commercial and industrial activities in Winnipeg, and furthermore, as a result of the construction of a growing number of residential areas on the outskirts of the old city area, many of Pilgrim's members are no longer within walking distance of their church. Yet they have remained faithful to this mainstay that is associated with their Community. ·
