Domenico Ghirlandaio - Preaching of St John the Baptist
Pilgrim Lutheran Church
The Second Sunday in Advent
December 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 9:15 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:

Psalm: Psalm 66:1–12

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP
This second Sunday in Advent continues with expectations of both our Lord’s first and second coming. Luke’s gospel focuses on John the Baptizer, whose coming Malachi foretold in today’s Old Testament text. Both readings highlight John’s preaching of repentance, preparing our hearts for the coming judgment. So, we live today in expectation for and hope in the Messiah, who came to save us from our sins.
