Pilgrim Lutheran Church
The Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost
September 22, 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 9:00 am, then our 10:00 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
It is election season; we’re bombarded by candidates, parties, platforms and campaigns. Many important Biblical issues divide our communities with candidates lining up on each side of these issues. The entire situation quickly becomes “us vs. them”, filled with great passion, even including violence & hatred. Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy.

Often, we read the first verse of today’s Gospel text and conclude John & the other disciples have this same boastful mindset. But is that really what Jesus is teaching us in this text?
