The Fourth Sunday of Easter
April 21, 2024
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 Adult Bible study at 9:15 am, then our 10:30 am Worship service. Afterward, we gathered for food and conversations, 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! Anyone can watch our services live on Facebook or later on Pilgrim's website.
Here is information about this worship service:

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP SUNDAY
Sunday’s Gospel text from John 10 provides pure, beautiful and unadulterated comfort to a suffering Christian conscience. In these words, we learn that Jesus is our Good Shepherd. He defends us against the attacks of the wolf [the devil]. He sticks beside us and will never leave us, not like a hired hand, a faithless shepherd or a faithless pastor would do. Jesus does all this of His own choosing, even laying down His life. Because of this, He is worthy of the Father’s love. There is also another great & powerful lesson for us to discover in this text, one that is both frightening and freeing.
