Lent at Mt. Lebanon Lutheran

 

Social Outreach Lenten Project 2024

We are partnering with one of Pittsburgh’s Refugee Resettlement agencies, Hello Neighbor, to assist the large numbers of refugees being placed in the region from a variety of countries including The Congo, Syria, and Afghanistan.  During Lent, we will be collecting household goods to furnish the homes of our new neighbors.  Please review the list of needed items in the March edition of our newsletter, The Voice prior to bringing your donation to the church campus on Sunday morning or during weekly operating hours. 

 

March Bible Studies

“The Passion of Christ in the Gospels”

A Review and Discussion of the Suffering of Jesus

THURSDAY MORNING 10:15 AM – 11:30 AM
March 28     John18-19

Led by Pastor Heagy, these studies will focus on the suffering of Jesus. On March 7, 14, and 21, we will meet in the Conference Room. On March 28, participants will read John 18-19 in their own homes and later join the church for Holy Thursday worship at 7:30 PM in the sanctuary.


NOTE: Monday Evening Bible study will resume after Easter

    

Holy Week Vigil of Prayer

Our congregation will again hold an around the clock prayer vigil during the 156 hours from the close of worship of Passion (Palm) Sunday until Easter.  A Vigil Guidebook is provided and we encourage local and out-of-town members and friends to participate.  Please refer to page 14 in The Voice for additional information about signing up and reserving your vigil times   

   

  

The Great and Holy Week
Holy Thursday, March 28 at 7:30pm – Festive Sanctuary Worship & Live stream on Facebook

Holy Thursday marks the institution of the Lord’s Supper and a call to heed Jesus’ two commandments: “Love one another as I have loved you;” and “Do this in remembrance of me.” The Altar will be stripped to signify Jesus’ betrayal, as he was stripped of glory and placed into the hands of his captors.
 

Good Friday, March 29 at 7:30pm - Festive Sanctuary Worship & Live stream on Facebook

Our Tenebrae Liturgy is an adaptation of the ancient office of light dimming used to impress upon the hearts and minds of believers the awful consequences of sin and magnitude of our Savior’s sacrifice. The liturgy includes hymns [sung without accompaniment]; readings which trace the experience of our Lord from His trial before Pilate to his crucifixion, death and burial; and prayers. Worshipers sense the grueling ordeal of Jesus’ passion.

IMG 2275The People of Mt. Lebanon Lutheran Welcome You!

First of all, we want to say “Welcome!” We hope you will feel right at home worshiping with our congregational family. If you are seeking for a place to explore your faith or searching for a congregational home, we’d like you to know that here’s a special place for you. First and foremost, we are a place for Worship. Also you will find us to be…

A Place for Friendship. Nothing quite compares to the joy of Christian friendship. That’s why we make it a priority to build lasting bonds among the members of our congregational family - bonds of concern and genuine commitment to one another. It is a witness to the brothers and sisters we are by our baptism. And we’d love for the family to include you, too.

A Place for Learning. To us, the proclamation and study of the Bible is vital because it not only instructs us intellectually but guides us spiritually. We have books and resources from our library that can be studied at home. On our campus there are Sunday and Midweek educational opportunities for learning God’s Word, which is alive and relevant today.

A Place for Outreach. Just as Jesus came “not to be minister unto, but to minister...” we accept our responsibilities to reach out in the Name of Christ to serve one another in our communities, our nation, and worldwide.

About Us - an Overview
 

Let Us Introduce Ourselves…

Founded in 1929, Mt. Lebanon Lutheran Church is one of 8,900 congregations of the 3.14-million-member Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. We are a congregation of about 800+ baptized members.

Some of our members were born and raised in this congregation, but the great majority have joined more recently. Many come from a background other than Lutheran, which means that we welcome people from all sorts of faith journeys, and we welcome the questions they bring. What we have in common is a desire to know and love God more deeply and use our gifts to care for all God's people.

As Lutheran Christians…

  • We proclaim faith in the Triune God, confessing Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. It is though His life, death, and resurrection that God redeems and fashions a new creation.
  • We recognize the canonical Old and New Testaments as the inspired Word of God which provides the authoritative norm for life in faith.
  • We worship God by proclamation of His Word and administration of His Sacraments, as well as through lives of prayer, witness, and service.
  • We care for the sick and the aged, advocate dignity and justice for al people, work for reconciliation and peach among the nations and stand with the poor and powerless, all in response to God’s love for us.
 
 

From Our Pastor

    

Welcome to Mount Lebanon Lutheran Church in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! Our congregation is a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the largest Lutheran denomination in North America.

We formed as a faith community in 1925 and moved to our present location in the mid-1950s. We have been blessed by God with faith to meet challenges and celebrate joys. Christ is the center of our life. We believe Jesus is Lord, sent into the world to redeem us from sin and to create God’s beloved community. Our values are grounded in faith, our biblical and Lutheran confessional sources, and our love of God and neighbor. They speak to the way we live and practice our faith, and guide how we journey as a church.

Forgiveness and reconciliation – We are reconciled to God by forgiving mercy. Forgiveness and reconciliation flow from what God has done in Jesus Christ.

Dignity, compassion and justice – Each person is created in God's image. We respect this God-given dignity and, following Jesus as Lord, show love and compassion for all people.

Inclusion – As Christ's church, we value the richness of God's creation and offer a radical welcome to all people, appreciating our common humanity and our differences.

Scripture – the 66 canonical books of the Old and New Testaments – is God’s word, the authority of our life. We read and interpret scripture in light of our belief in the revelation of God as Holy Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The historic church creeds are a part of our weekly worship.

Faithful stewardship of God's creation and gifts – Faithful stewardship is the belief that everything belongs to God, which we manage with great care.

My wife, Barbara, and I have served in Mount Lebanon for over ten years. We have three grown children. I welcome you to join us for worship, to experience Jesus’ love for you, and to become a part of our church family.

          --Pastor Douglas M. Heagy
