The Third Sunday in Advent

December 15,  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:

BIBLE READINGS FOR SUNDAY

 Old Testament:  Zephaniah 3:14–20

              Psalm:  Psalm 85
             Epistle:  Philippians 4:4–7
             Gospel:   Luke 7:18–28

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP
The Church historically has named today Gaudete, the Latin word for “rejoice”.  We hear joy & rejoicing all over the assigned Scripture readings, the Introit, our prayers and hymns.  We light the pink Advent wreath candle, a spark of joy during this season of waiting.  Joy & peace are things we’re always restlessly seeking, but more focused during this season.  Why?  Jesus the Coming Light draws near to us & comes to us, giving us His joy & peace!
