Pilgrim Worship Sunday January 4, 2026

The Second Sunday after Christmas

January 4, 2026

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've returned to our regular Sunday schedule, starting with Adult Bible class at 9:15 am and 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 on Pilgrim's website.

Here is information about this worship service:

SCRIPTURE READINGS
  Old Testament:  1 Kings 3:4–15
         Psalm:   Psalm 119:97–104
               Epistle:  Ephesians 1:3–14
       Gospel:  Luke 2:40–52

THEME FOR WORSHIP
We often experience times of identity crisis.  In the 1950’s the label “identity confusion” was put forth as especially challenging for young adults.  Sadly, this has born terribly harmful fruit in recent years.  Soon after, the idea of adults having a “mid-life crisis” came into the picture.  Life changes such as retirement or children leaving home can produce questions about one’s identity.  
What is your identity?  What can a 12-year-old Jewish boy over two centuries ago possibly have to say about this question?
