Our Vision
To make disciples for Christ by proclaiming the gospel that Jesus Christ is Lord — crucified, buried, and resurrected.
We're all about people
Life isn't just about who you know. It's about who knows you.
Pilgrim Baptist Church of South Chicago is built on relationships. We believe that believers are limitless in God's possibilities — no “walls” can restrict God's people and “all things are possible” with God on your side. Here, you'll find people who genuinely care about your life, your struggles, and your victories. We're not just a Sunday gathering; we're a family.
Dynamic Preaching
The Bible is our greatest source of truth
Pastor Corwin D. Lasenby Sr. has been preaching for over thirty years in his native Chicago. His preaching style consists of expository, careful explanation of Scripture combined with his signature ability to tell detailed stories from a contemporary view. Come expecting to be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to live out your faith.
