Plug in to St. John
A Foundation of Faith for Everything We Do
We welcome you to our St. John faith community and we invite you to worship with us every week. Come just as you are, sinner and saint, and celebrate the God who made us all. St. John Lutheran Church has three pastors who serve our congregation.
