Who We Are
St John’s is a part of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. At the community level, St John’s is a family sized congregation. We are involved in our community with free meals the fourth Saturday of every month. Our youth are engaged in service projects both within the congregation and to the community at large. We support, as a part of our community involvement, the Orphan Grain Train, Women’s Ministry with caring and sharing bible study, Lutheran World Missions and Lydia Society at the local level and their hoagie sale ministry. We also support our troops with military Bible sticks and Veteran’s sleep out in November to support our homeless veterans.
We are growing in our faith and helping others to come to faith and grow in it. We are specifically seeking to reach younger families. We have a contemporary service the first Saturday of every month. We also offer Wednesday night services during Lent and Advent. We have a Wednesday afternoon Bible study in addition to our Sunday Morning Bible Study.

What We Believe
Faith alone; Scripture alone; Grace alone
Martin Luther
Part of getting to know us is understanding what we believe. In an age where most people determine their god, we believe in the Triune God of the Bible, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God is holy and created humans to be in a relationship with Him. Our rebellious nature caused us to sin, so God in His great love for us created a way back to himself through the death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ. We agree with Martin Luther that salvation is done through God's gift of faith to us, done through Jesus as recorded in the Scripture, and done through God's gift of grace, not through works that we do.
On the National level, we are apart of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. Our regional district is the SELC. To learn more about our Synod and district, please click on their logos.
