Pilgrim Lutheran Church

The Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost

September 25, 2022

We're 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 Adult Bible study, while the children enjoyed Sunday School. 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 on Sunday mornings!

Here is information about today's worship service:

SCRIPTURE READINGS

Old Testament: Amos 6:1–7

Psalm: Psalm 146
Epistle: 1 Timothy 3:1–13
Gospel: Luke 16:19–31

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP
In the gospel reading for today, Jesus tells a parable, The Rich Man and Lazarus. Life on earth for these two men could not have been more different. Lazarus suffered greatly in many ways, and the rich man enjoyed every earthly pleasure. This story is one of complete reversal. After their deaths, the poor man found comfort at Abraham’s side and the rich man suffered great anguish and torment in hell. Between them a great chasm has been fixed, which none may cross.

What does this parable teach us about the chasms you and I face in our lives? We face chasms in relationships, chasms related to our emotional & physical health, chasms separating our expectations & desires from the anguish of our real lives. Is there a great chasm between us and God?
