WELCOME TO ST. JOHN'S LUTHERAN CHURCH

We are a community of faith strengthened by the incredible history gifted to us through God's grace. We are a worshiping community that has worshiped together for more than 262 years. And even though our building may be old, our Spirit isn’t. We continue to offer God's Word and Sacrament to the community and the world we live in. We hope that the welcome we speak to you is one that looks and feels like a welcome that comes to you from God. Whenever or however you choose to be with us, may you know that God has a special place and love for you.

AID FOR UKRAINIAN REFUGES

Pastor Shawn has collected sufficient funds to help those in our community that need gas assistance or monetary support. However, we will continue to collect funds in the pink pig during rest of Lent and the season of Easter. All funds collected will now be sent to the Lutheran World Federation and designated for aid to refugees fleeing Ukraine. Checks can be made out to St. John’s Lutheran Church and dropped in the pink pig or mailed to church. Please make sure to mark the memo line with Lutheran World Federation.  
Many civilians (mostly) woman and children are seeking safety and security, both inside the country and in neighboring countries. Traumatized people are also in need of pastoral and psychosocial support. Lutheran churches and their diaconal organizations in Ukraine and in the neighboring countries are already providing support or preparing to do so. This includes providing emergency kits, basic necessities, shelter, basic medical services, pastoral care, and psychosocial support. This is all be managed and organized by LWF.  If you would like to make a secure online donation, go to donate.lutheranworld.org/
