You Matter
Take that next step
No matter who you are or where you're at in life, you matter. Here at St. John's we're all about helping people to know the God who made them and wants to have an eternal and everyday relationship with this. As you poke around on the pages of our website, we hope that you'll get a sense of the way God's Spirit is on the move in our midst. And we'd love to have to stop in and worship with us!
Our mission is simple: we help people to take next steps in following Jesus. For us as a church, we’ve defined that using four “L” words, which together form a cross: LEARN, LOVE, LEAD, and LIVE.
LEARN GOD’S WORD
We are students, always being open to what God’s Spirit is revealing through his Word. Whether in a Sunday morning sermon, small group Bible study or personal devotional time, we believe that God is revealing a truth that touches our hearts and transforms our lives.
LOVE LIKE FAMILY
Life is not meant to be lived alone. We are created for loving relationships. We see the church as a family where in spite of our imperfections and quirks we are united by the gospel of Jesus and invited to love as he did. If you’re looking for a place to be known and belong, we offer a number of different small groups based on age, interest and time availability.
LEAD WITHIN CAPACITY
Everyone has something to offer. And in that we are servants. We believe the church and world is a better place when everyone uses their skills, experiences and passions to meet the needs of our neighbors. Step up and serve somewhere. Your neighbor needs you!
LIVE FOR JESUS
We see ourselves as everyday missionaries. God gives us opportunities live out our faith publicly and be able to explain why in a winsome way. We demonstrate good behavior and we do good deeds in order that we might be able to influence others and speak the good news about Jesus.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE LUTHERAN?
Most churches are a part of some type of denomination or network of churches.
St. John’s is aligned with the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. We invite you to go online at lcms.org to find out more information on Lutheran Beliefs and Practices FAQs. The beauty of our Lutheran beliefs is that you are able to either “swim in the deep end” or “wade in the shallow end” of the pool. Martin Luther summarizes the essence of what we believe by using the following three phrases:
GRACE ALONE
We are recipients of God’s undeserved love (Ephesians 2:8-9).
FAITH ALONE
We trust that in Jesus our sins are forgiven and that God’s Spirit now fills us.
SCRIPTURE ALONE
We look to the Bible as the sole authority in determining what we believe and how we live as Christians (2 Timothy 3:14-17).
We’d love to have you walk through our doors and join us for worship some weekend. We offer services at 8:30 AM (traditional hymns, organ-led) and 10:30 AM (contemporary songs, band-led). You’re also welcome to join us for a more laid-back Wednesday evening worship experience at 7 PM (March through December).
Don't take our word for it

Q&A Making Sense of Life in Jesus
One of the ways to read Scripture is to pay attention to the questions—asked and answered. Questions stir up in us a sense of curiosity. They drive us to discover answers. They lead us to lean in and get to know each other more. Throughout this Lent we’ll be tackling questions from the text, and the questions behind those questions, as together we seek to know Jesus more.
