Coleridge Family Church

"Where Family is Belonging"

Variety: That's what you'll find when you visit our services. But one thing you should expect in every Assemblies of God church is a personal, uplifting worship experience. Our services are geared for participation. We typically worship as we live, with enthusiasm.

Facilities: Assemblies of God facilities are generally functional and practical, in keeping with our mission. Most Assemblies of God churches have platforms that also serve as altars, and incorporate a single pulpit where singing and prayer are led and the Word of God is preached.

Music: Music is a major feature of our worship. Whatever the accompaniment, inspired singing is the order of the day. Assemblies of God churches make music more than a performance; it's the music of worship.

Worship Experience: Worship styles will reflect the spectrum of personalities. Some are quiet and reserved; some shout with joy; others are simply tender and openly emotional during times of praise or preaching. No sincere worshiper needs to feel out of place in an Assemblies of God church. Each expression will blend without disruption into the flow of worship.

Prayer: A special time in the service is devoted to prayer. Needs from inside and outside the church family frequently are made known. The congregation prays together. All may pray aloud but conclude with a single voice, the worship leader or other designated person praying in behalf of all.

Spiritual Gifts: An interesting aspect of Assemblies of God worship is the operation of spiritual gifts. The planned service order may be suspended as individuals speak or share as prompted by the Holy Spirit, under the supervision of the pastor (1 Corinthians 12-14).

Challenging Messages: The climax of the service comes with the preaching of God's Word, the Bible, and an invitation for hearers to respond. The messages are fervent, inspiring and practical. Those who feel a need to rededicate their lives to Christ or to pray about other concerns are also invited to come. Often everyone is invited to come pray during the altar service. Deep emotion and excitement may or may not be demonstrated at the altars, but everyone who calls on God in faith receives something.

Immanuel Lutheran Church

Immanuel means "God is with us." Since the beginning of the 20th century, God has been guiding Immanuel Lutheran Church in the ministry of helping others come to faith, nurtured in God's love, and experience God's grace daily. Through many activities like Women's Circles, Confirmation (7th - 9th grade), Luther League (9th -12th grade), Sunday School, and numerous other groups and activities, the Immanuel community experiences God daily.

Immanuel Lutheran Church celebrated its 125th Anniversary in 2009 and had several events of celebration. Please visit us, listen to Pastor's sermons and learn more about our church at: http://www.immanuellutherancoleridge.org.

Pilgrim Congregational Church

Pilgrim Congregational United Church of Christ has a history that has its origin in the sharing together of Coleridge Methodist Church, Logan View Presbyterian Church, and Presbyterian Church of Coleridge. Since 1925, the current location has served for worship, education, fellowship, and special services of Pilgrim Congregational Church.

Pilgrim Congregational Church derives its name from the group of people from England who landed in the vicinity of Plymouth Rock in Massachusetts in 1619.

The early Pilgrims and their Congregational descendants placed special emphasis upon the autonomy of the local church, and a covenantal rather than a creedal relationship between local churches and churches of other denominations.

In 1957 Pilgrim Congregational Church added United Church of Christ to its name in support of the merger of The Evangelical and Reformed Church and The Congregational Christian Churches.  Since that time the local church has continued to be active in The Nebraska Conference of The United Church of Christ.  It has continued the tradition of ecumenical support, while retaining its own traditions of autonomy in a local church, an interdependence with other United Church of Christ congregations, freedom of worship, open communion, a belief in laity educated in the faith, and the importance of the historic Church.

Pilgrim Congregational United Church of Christ retains its unique styles of ministries on the local level, and shares with The First Congregational United Church of Christ in Hartington in providing a pastor-teacher to serve both congregations.

The current schedule for worship is Sunday at 10:30 a.m. with open communion observed normally on the first Sunday of the month.  Sunday School meets at 9:30 a.m.  Women’s Fellowship meets the first Wednesday of the month and provides other ministries throughout the year.  Other events and services are observed through the year, with an emphasis on services provided ecumenically by Christians Caring.

St. Michael Parish

The Catholic Church extends across all boundaries and gathers people together from every race, language, and way of life to form the one Body of Christ.  Her mission is to make the presence of Jesus tangible in today’s world and to reveal to us what God is like.  As a part of the Archdiocese of Omaha in union with the Pope in Rome, we the people of St. Michael’s Parish, recognize that while we are but a small part of the Church Universal we share in her mission to reveal the presence of God to everyone.

The name of our patron, St. Michael the Archangel, literally means:  Who is like God?    Our parish, being named after the Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, has the unique responsibility to show to the world – and in particular the community of Coleridge – what one “who is like God” really is like.  We recognize that God, while being One, is a relationship of three divine

Persons united in a communion of love.  This reality is at the heart of who we are as a parish:  people from every walk of life united in a communion around the Eucharistic altar of the Lord Jesus.

Currently, our pastor serves not only our parish but also Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Hartington, Nebraska, where he resides.  The Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Dubuque, Iowa) also serve our parish in a number of ways and some of their sisters have residence at St. Michael’s rectory.

Our schedule of weekly Masses is:  Tuesdays at 7:00 a.m., Thursdays at 9:15 a.m. (at Park View Haven Nursing Home), and Sundays at 9:30 a.m.  The Sacrament of Confession is offered at 9:00-9:25 a.m. before the Sunday Mass.
