Vision Statement:      

Welcoming Everyone
Making Disciples
Trusting Jesus
Empowering Leaders

We will welcome everyone into our lives and into a relationship with Jesus Christ.  

We will commit to challenging ourselves and others to become disciples of Jesus Christ by doing life together in small groups.  

We will seek to glorify God in everything we do by trusting Jesus Christ alone for guidance and for salvation. 

We will work to empower all believers to grow into spiritual leaders in their churches, in their families, where they work and where they play. 



Hello, Follow, Know, Grow

At St. John’s Lutheran Church, we are a Christ-centered community committed to telling others about Jesus, nurturing spiritual growth, and serving others with love. With deep roots in the Lutheran tradition and a heart for our local community, we gather together to worship God, we learn to follow God's Word in small groups, we seek to know Jesus through faith and we work to grow into disciples who will make new disciples. Whether you’re exploring faith or looking for a church home, you are welcome here.

What We Believe

We believe in one God who exists as three loving persons: The Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit.

We believe that the Bible was inspired by God and is the authority for how we talk about God, what we believe about God and how we live our lives.  

We believe that God created all people good, but that all people are also under the power of sin—a term the Bible uses to refer to our brokenness, how we feel disconnected from God and how we fall short of God’s standard for our lives.  

We believe that our relationship with God is restored by trusting in Jesus Christ and His forgiveness and not because of anything we do to make ourselves look good in God’s eyes.  

We believe that baptism is a way for God to show a person—whether they are an infant, child or adult—that He loves them unconditionally and always will. Hearing the promise of baptism helps us to grow to trust in God’s love for us.

We believe that The Lord’s Supper—hearing the promise of God’s forgiveness with the elements of bread and wine—is another way that God shows us His love. Receiving the promise of God’s forgiveness in this way helps us to grow to trust in God’s love for us.
