Pilgrim Worship Sunday January 10, 2021

 

Pilgrim Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod)

Burton, Michigan

Hello Pilgrim family, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  Amen

Welcome to our worship service for Sunday January 10th, the first Sunday after Epiphany on which we celebrate the Baptism of Our Lord.  

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP TODAY 

Today we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus. Such a day is also a good time to remember our own Baptism. In Baptism, we are buried with Christ. We are united with Him in a death like His. In Baptism, we are also raised to new life as re-creations. As we are united to Christ in death, we will also be united with Him in resurrection when He returns and raises the dead.

STEWARDSHIP SCRIPTURE FOR THIS COMING WEEK     Romans 6:11

“So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin, and alive to God in Christ Jesus.” 

This is a fact, you know… you and I are dead to sin and alive to God!  Jesus Christ gave us this gift and the Holy Spirit stirs in us a deep and obedient love for our neighbors.  Can you & I die to the sins of greed, selfishness, pride which keep us from sharing generously with others?  Can you and I die to sins of mis-trust and weak faith, which cause us to doubt God will continue providing for us?  Yes, Yes to both!  Pray with me, that the Holy Spirt make all of us alive in our generous giving and serving Christ’s church and our neighbors!
