Pilgrim Lutheran Church
The Ninth Sunday after Pentecost
August 10, 2025
We're thankful you've come here to watch our service and to worship the one true God!
Today we worshiped outside, in the Pilgrim Pavilion!
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 on Pilgrim's website.
Here is information about this worship service:
SCRIPTURE READINGS
Old Testament: Genesis 15:1–6
Psalm: Psalm 33:12–22
Epistle: Hebrews 11:1–16
Gospel: Luke 12:22–34
THEME FOR WORSHIP
This Sunday in particular, our readings picture the Christian life of faith, both of strong faith and of little faith. Abraham [Abram] is often held up as a model of great faith; today’s Old Testament lesson is one example. Today’s Epistle lesson lists Abraham as the most prominent member of the “Faith Hall of Fame”.
On the other hand, today’s Gospel scolds “you of little faith”, who are anxious about are lives, what we will eat, or about our bodies, what we will put on. This sounds familiar to you, because all of us have times of strong and little faith. Your good news today is this: no matter the strength of your faith, God the Father has promised you a rich inheritance, a bright and enduring future!
