The Sixth Sunday of Easter

May 25, 2025

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:

THEME FOR WORSHIP

The sixth Sunday of Easter brings us to the brink of Ascension, which Christ’s Church celebrates this Thursday.  Through the Easter season, the weekly Bible readings have reminded us that Jesus’ resurrection is a physical reality for you, me and all believers.  In these last Sundays of Easter, our focus has been on the Holy Spirit living bodily in us through God’s Word & Sacraments.  

The Hymn of the Day for today is “Dear Christians, One and All, Rejoice”.  We’ll sing all ten stanzas because it is one of the finest confessions of faith, taking us from the depths of sin’s sorrow to Jesus rescuing us, to His resurrection and finally to the Father’s giving us the Holy Spirit who comforts us in body and soul.
