Pilgrim Lutheran Church
The Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost
September 8, 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:

THEME FOR WORSHIP
In today’s Old Testament reading, God makes an awesome promise to His people. God will come with vengeance on His enemies and with recompense for all who suffer. Certainly, these verses prophecy Jesus’ Last-Day coming, but they also point to God’s Son coming to His creation in the fully human person of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. In today’s Gospel reading, we see a crumb of this prophecy fulfilled, as Jesus gives recompense to a woman who is suffering. But this isn’t a typical conversation and healing; it contains an unusual twist or two.
