Maundy Thursday

April 6, 2023

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

Today we celebrate Maundy Thursday, most well-known as a commemoration of our Savior’s initiation of holy communion.  Ironically, the name “Maundy” came from the Latin translation of John 13:34, a verse in today’s gospel reading:  “Mandatum novum do vobis” [“a new commandment I give to you”].

This new commandment is to love one another, as Jesus has loved us.  Jesus demonstrated His love for His disciples in the simple action of washing their feet, which points to so much more.  Jesus gives to us the ultimate & greatest love:  Jesus laid down His life on Calvary’s cross to forgive you all your sins.

SCRIPTURE READINGS 
   Old Testament:  Exodus 12:1–14
        Psalm:  Psalm 116:12–19
       Epistle:  1 Corinthians 11:23–32
       Gospel:  John 13:1–17, 31–35

If you live in the Burton area, please consider joining us on Sunday mornings, especially this coming Easter Sunday!  We have two worship services and a free Easter breakfast in between:
    Easter Sunrise worship service at 8:30 am
    Easter Breakfast & Fellowship from 9:45am - 10:45am
    Easter Day worship service at 11:00am

Anyone can watch our services live on Facebook or later on Pilgrim's website.

Peace in Christ, our loving, serving Savior,
