Pilgrim Lutheran Church
The Eleventh Sunday after Pentecost
August 24, 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 on Pilgrim's website.
Here is information about this worship service:
SCRIPTURE READINGS
Old Testament: Isaiah 66:18–23
Psalm: Psalm 50:1–15
Epistle: Hebrews 12:4–24
Gospel: Luke 13:22–30
THEME FOR WORSHIP
In today’s Gospel reading [Luke 13:22-30], Jesus speaks some challenging words to us. Misunderstanding these words can be dangerous, giving us the false idea that our good works will make us fit through this narrow door.
So, what does Jesus mean when He calls us “strive” or “struggle” to enter through the narrow door? The door is closing…how do we avoid being one of those standing outside?
