Sunday School is being done via the US Mail. Worship Service begins at 10 a.m. We will temporarily suspend our after Worship Service Fellowship until further notice, as per CDC. We will continue to hold our Sunday Sermons on Facebook, in addition to our Outdoor Worship Services. NOTE: If churches are still unable to hold Worship Services in their Sanctuaries due to the Coro- na Virus lockdown, watch Pastor Kilian’s Sermons at https://www.facebook.com/PilgrimLutheranSantaMonica/ . You may also attend our outdoor Worship Services on Sundays, at 10 a.m. (Weather permitting.) Outdoor Worship Services are being held in our updated “Pilgrim Park!” We have enjoyed worshiping outdoors, under our huge blue tarp, in our beautiful “Pilgrim Park!” We want to thank all of you have been attending our services, some of you driving many miles to get here. We want to thank Allen for his live streaming filming on Facebook so those who cannot be with us, can still participate with us at 10 a.m. on Sunday mornings or watch the Service later in the day. We want to thank Michael for assisting our security guard, and we want to thank all of you who help us put away our chairs and tables after the Worship Service! Your help is much appreciated. And we want to especially thank Pastor Kilian for all the extra effort and work he has done this year, to keep Pilgrim going and to keep us connected via his Facebook services, his Daily Devotionals and his Outdoor Worship Services. If the government increases the lockdown rules, we might not be able to continue to hold our outdoor Worship Services. We will keep you updat- ed via email. Pilgrim’s Christmas Eve and Christmas Day Worship Service will be held via Facebook. We will not have an out- door service Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. However, our Virtual Worship Services will be beautiful. We will have Christmas trees and Pastor Kilian will light the Advent Candles. We plan to also have Mary play some Christmas hymns. The Church Office will keep everyone informed. The Mission of Pilgrim Lutheran Church is to be an incarnation of Jesus Christ to people of all ages in the Santa Monica area and throughout the world. Advent Worship Services Pilgrim has traditionally held Wednesday Night Advent Worship Services in the Sanctuary to observe the beginning of the Christmas Season, preparing for the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Due to the Covid 19 Corona Virus government lock- down, we are not allowed to hold in-house Worship Services. However, we will hold special on-line Midweek Services on Wednesdays in December. Pastor Kilian will light the Advent candles and explain the meaning of each candle. He will also Present a Sermon on the topic: “Jesus, Son of Man and Son of God.” (see below) The Meaning of the Advent Ring The Advent Ring is a Christian tradition that symbolizes the passage of the four weeks of Advent. It is a circular candle holder with five candles. During the season of Advent one candle on the Ring is lit each Sunday until all of the candles, including the fifth “Christ” candle, are lit on Christmas Eve. Each candle represents an aspect of the spiritual preparation for the celebration of the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Most Advent Rings use three colors of candles—purple or blue, pink and white. Advent Midweek Worship and Christmas Theme: “Jesus, Son of Man and Son of God!” Tracing the genealogy of Jesus through Abraham, King David and Mary & Joseph, we see Him as True Man, even as He was True God. Jesus came into the world as a baby to be one of us and one with us! At the same time, He is the God Who fulfills the promises given to Abraham, the God Who establish- es the Throne of David forever, and the God Who comes to the lowly and humble, like Mary and Jo- seph. Each Midweek Worship Service we will examine a different “Sonship” of Jesus showing Him to be the Son of Man and culminating with His identity as the Only Begotten Son of God. To bring the real gift of Christmas, Jesus needed to be both God and Man in order to fulfill the Father’s Plan of Sal- vation. By examining this Divine mystery we will gain a greater appreciation for God’s gift of Christmas as we grow in our faith as the Children of God. Join us virtually via Pilgrim's Facebook page on Wednesdays December 2nd, 9th and 16th as we build the Anticipation of the Advent Season and prepare for Christmas. December 2nd “Jesus: Son of Abraham” December 9th “Jesus: Son of David” December 16th “Jesus: Son of Joseph and Mary” December 24th Christmas Eve, “Jesus: Son of Man and Son of God” December 25th Christmas Day, “Christmas is for Children of God!” We will NOT hold weekly Bible Study during Advent. Adult Bible Classes, Worship Services and more… “Wednesday Night Live” and “Prime Time” Bible Study NOTE: Due to the COVID –19 Virus Pandemic, Pilgrim will not hold Worship Services or Bible Study Classes in the Church until further notice. We will be using the CDC Guidelines when we reopen. We recently began holding outdoor Worship Services in our Pilgrim Park, and they are live streamed on Facebook for those unable to attend in person. There will be NO Virtual Bible Studies during Advent. Instead, please watch our Wednesday Night Virtual Advent Services. We are Re-printing Pastor Kilian’s Excellent October 27,2020 Daily Devotional: PASTOR'S DAILY DEVOTIONAL- OCTOBER 27, 2020 (TUESDAY) PRAYER "The Lord is far from the wicked: but He hears the prayers of the righteous." Proverbs 15:29 It is not our works or deeds that make us righteous, but rather the gift of Faith in Christ given by God. If one believes in Jesus, they have this gift and can be certain that the Lord hears their prayers. This Proverb makes it clear that our prayers are powerful and effective because they are heard by the Almighty God. In a recent weekly Bible Study on the Book of Proverbs (found on our Facebook page) I had commented on how appropriate it is to read the Book of Proverbs and to pray each verse as you do so. Martin Luther on his commentary of the Book said this, "(Solomon) puts his teaching into proverbs, so that it can be grasped the more easily and kept the more readily. Anyone who intends to become righteous might well take this as a handbook or prayer book for his daily use, read it often, and ponder his own life in it." I love Luther's recommendation. The Proverbs contains so much for attaining wisdom and discipline; for un- derstanding words of insight and acquiring a disciplined and prudent life. This is the reason it was written by the power of the Spirit through the hand of Solomon. When we read each proverb, we do well to pray that God would apply the truth to our personal life. Proverbs speaks on so many topics that are relevant to everyday life, that praying them as we receive them brings in God's power to make them real in our life.

  • The Religious Development of the Community
    THE RELIGIOUS DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMMUNITY by John C. Perry Keene was first settled by people from "Ye Godly, God fearing and God serving Province of Massachusetts"; therefore, the settlement of a minister and the location and erection of a meetinghouse were of prime importance to the inhabitants. Grants and charters to the several townships required that the proprietors "support an orthodox minister" by assessment from time to time on themselves. The early church and community affairs were somewhat interlocked as the church building was also used as the central meeting place for town affairs and special events. All inhabitants who desired to attend reli­ gious services worshiped in the one church. Today in the city of Keene the worshiper has a choice of some 19 churches, representing most of the leading denominations in the United States. The United Church of Christ in Keene When Keene was first settled in 1736 and the land divided among the proprietors, a lot was set aside for a future meetinghouse. The lo­ cation of the meetinghouse and the accompanying cemetery was on the rise of ground just north of the Branch River, at the south end of the Town Street, about where the house of Howard B. Lane now 412 stands. When only one dwelling house had been erected the settlers were resolved to record God's name among them; therefore, on Sep- tember 30, 1736, it was voted that they build a meetinghouse 40 feet long, 20 feet stud and 35 feet wide; to underpin, cover and inclose the same, and lay down boards for the lower floor; and to set the same at the south end of the Town Street at the place appointed by the General Courts Committee.

  • The Making of the Church of Ireland Book of Common Prayer 2004 HAROLD MILLER
    The Making of the Church of Ireland Book of Common Prayer 2004 HAROLD MILLER In the 2004 Church of Ireland Book of Common Prayer the Preface describes the work of compilation in the following words: • We sought to unify the worship of God’s people, while allowing reasonable scope for diversity within the essential unity of the Church’s prayer. • We were determined to produce a book which would have equal capacity to enrich private as well as corporate devotion. • We desired that this book, like previous editions of it, should properly articulate and embody the Church’s faith. • We hoped that the book would strengthen our bonds of unity with sister churches who share our approach to common prayer, and we were therefore fully attentive to the reports of successive meetings of the International Anglican Liturgical Consultation. These sentences capture, in a brief and simple form, some of the key elements that have been distinguishing features of Irish Anglican worship and ethos over the centuries, and that are of great importance to our self-understanding in the Church of Ireland. To put them in other words: the commonality of prayer; the relationship between public and private worship; lex orandi, lex credendi; and a sense of worldwide catholicity. In this lecture, I will take these four areas one by one, and use them as windows into the making of the new Church of Ireland Book of Common Prayer. Unity in Diversity: The Commonality of Prayer We sought to unify the worship of God’s people, while allowing reasonable scope for diversity within the essential unity of the Church’s prayer.
