Welcome to the website of Pilgrim Lutheran Church (LCMS), Kilgore, Texas! We are glad that … (more)
“Jesus saves you”
The Son of God did not take on human flesh primarily to walk on water, nor to rescue the disciples from the storm, nor to deliver us from our daily difficulties, but both to live the perfect life that we fail to live and to die on the cross for our failure to live that perfect life.
“August can help move us back to Bible schooling”
People may wrongly think that once they are confirmed in the church that they have “graduated” from any form of Bible schooling or instruction in the Lutheran Confessions, but such catechesis should be womb to tomb.
“Favorite children and left-out siblings can have God’s favor”
Those who are sorry for their sinful nature and for their actual sins, and who trust God to forgive them by grace (or “favor”!) for Jesus’s sake, are forgiven by God and, in turn, love God more than anyone else.
The mission of Pilgrim Lutheran Church is to glorify God by receiving the forgiveness of sins by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and sharing that salvation through word and deed with those in our midst, in our community, and throughout the world.
