Our Vision
Encounter Jesus
We are made to be in relationship with God. Our loving Heavenly Father sent his son, Jesus, so we could know him. This UP dimension of our lives helps us focus on what matters most. At Saint John’s we love to worship and celebrate who God is and what he’s doing in our lives.
Experience Family
Life is hard and we need support. God gives us a spiritual family to help us in times of need and to equip us to serve well. If we’re going to grow in faith, we need brothers and sisters who will love us and challenge us. This IN dimension of our lives helps us stop flying solo and realize how connected we really are.
Embrace the Broken
There are so many people hurting all around us, all the time. There are so many needs. God calls us to this OUT dimension of our lives to make a difference by serving and sharing our faith in Jesus’ name. We give of ourselves to the lost, the least, and the last. God has not forgotten you and we won’t either.
Who We Are
Saint John’s is one of the over 800 congregations in the United States that are members of the Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ (LCMC). LCMC is an association of Lutheran churches founded in 2001 whose beliefs are rooted in Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions.
Saint John’s is also a congregation of the North American Lutheran Church (NALC). The NALC was formed in 2010 by Christians seeking to remain deeply rooted in the truth of the Bible and the mission of Jesus Christ. We hold to the historic teachings of the Church, guided by the Lutheran Confessions, and shaped by four core values: we are a Christ-Centered, Mission-Driven, Traditionally Grounded, and Congregationally Focused community of believers committed to making disciples and living out the Gospel together.
While some of Saint John’s members are lifelong Lutherans, the majority come from a variety of denominational and faith backgrounds.
