"He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death." Phil. 2:8 This verse gives us the hope that so many are searching for in this world. All around us, and within our very homes, among the many joyfull blessings of each day, we find turmoil, stress, and pain. However, though the circumstances may be such, we can have a more hopeful outlook - we are blessed! That's right! We are better than we deserve as we realize that we are given yet another day to live with God's blessings.

Our History
St. John's was established in July of 1872. St. John's traces her beginnings back to 1850 when Lutheran pioneers from Wisconsin came west to the Minnesota Territory in search of greater opportunities...for more historical information, click here.

We pray that you are able to find peace in the Good News of the Gospel message of Jesus Christ, and again, if there's anything we can do for you, please let us know.
