Christ's Charge to Peter Raphael 1515

Pilgrim Lutheran Church

The Third Sunday of Easter

May 1, 2022

We're glad & thankful you've come here to watch our service and to worship the one true God!

This was another exciting Sunday at Pilgrim Lutheran Church! Once again, we had lots of great activities going on, starting with our 10:30 am Worship Service. Afterward, we gathered for food, conversations, and an adult Bible class, in which we're studying Revelation, one of the most fascinating books of the Bible. If you'd like to watch a video of this Bible Study, please contact Pastor Mark. Children also gathered for Sunday School, which we present every Sunday for children of all ages. These classes are full of activities and teaching, so the children learn how much God loves them!

If you live in the Burton area, please consider joining us for any or all of these great events!

Here is information about todays worship service:

SCRIPTURE READINGS FOR SUNDAY

First Reading: Acts 9:1–22

Psalm: Psalm 30
Epistle: Revelation 5:1–14
Gospel: John 21:1–19

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP SUNDAY
Today’s Gospel reading has extraordinary sections; a second miraculous fish miracle which includes a fire-side breakfast miracle on the beach, and a powerful dialog between Jesus and Peter. So, you ask, what is going on in this third Jesus-appearance following His resurrection? The answer is: A LOT!

In the first main section, Jesus shows up to encourage and restore all His disciples who went fishing the previous night. But Jesus comes specifically to Peter, to forgive, restore and send him forth as a mature “fisher of men”. We will focus a lot on Peter, and unpack the gracious mercy of Jesus, given to Peter and to you also!
