The Seventh Sunday of Easter

June 1, 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!  We're now in our Summer Schedule starting with our 9:30 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

THEME FOR WORSHIP

This is a Sunday of waiting.  We’re with Jesus’ disciples, in a 10-day wait between Jesus’ Ascension to heaven and His giving of the promised Holy Spirit on Pentecost.  We pray this in the Collect prayer; we hear the clear promise of Christ’s long-awaited return in the Epistle reading.  Luke tells shares the apostles’ waiting in the same Jerusalem upper room where they first gathered on Maundy Thursday.  They were waiting “in one accord”, they were waiting in unity.  St. John shares Jesus’ prayer to His Father in heaven, that we would wait for His return in unity, the perfect unity which He and His Father live.  How good and pleasant it is when we can dwell together in unity!
