Worship at
St. John’s Lutheran


As Christians, Jesus Christ is the center of all that we do. This is especially true when it comes to the worship and praise of our God. Without Jesus we would have no reason to sing praises to our God. Our sin would still separate us from our God. We would have to tremble in fear! But Christ has restored our relationship with God. This gives us every reason to rejoice. Now we can stand before God in joy and thanks for all that he has accomplished through Christ.

Our worship services currently take place at 9:00 AM on Sundays. All are welcome to join us in worship!

We offer the sacrament of Holy Communion on the 2nd and 4th Sundays. Our church body (WELS) practices closed (or close) communion. This means that only those who publicly confess that they share in our beliefs (members of other WELS churches, ELS churches, or member churches of the CELC) may join us at the Lord’s table. If you do not know whether you agree with what we confess, please speak to our pastor before joining us. We do not do this to be exclusive - rather, we do not want you to partake of the Sacrament to your own judgment (1 Cor 11:27-29).

Stained Glass

Our worship consists of two important things.  In our worship we open our hearts to receive the saving truth of God's Gospel.  In the order of service that we use, in the hymns that we sing, in the scriptures we read, and in the sermons that we hear, God communicates to us his love and forgiveness found in Christ. In response we open our arms and lips to give to God the praise and glory due to him. Through our hymns, prayers and offerings we offer up thanks to our Savior God.

We refer to our worship as the Divine Service because worship is not about what we give to God - rather, it is about what God gives to us in his means of grace, that is, his Word and sacraments. Through them we receive the forgiveness of sins, as well as the many blessings yet to come in heaven.
