The message at St. John’s is simple: We preach Christ and Him crucified. In every Divine Service, Christ is with us, offering grace and forgiveness where He promises they’ll be: in His Word and in His Sacraments.
We welcome you to join us.

If you have Jesus Christ in faith, your God is no different from the Canaanite woman’s. He not only didn’t spare His own Son, but gave Him up for you all. For the impossible problem of your sin. A God who can look any problem in the face — even your biggest problem — and actually do something about it. A God who knows infinitely better than you what’s for your good.
Your suffering is part and parcel of your identity as a Christian. You can’t be a Christian without it. That’s actually Christ’s promise to you: ‘In this world you have tribulation.’ So certain is this that Luther can say that the ‘possession of the holy cross’ is a mark of the church. He ranks it right up there with the Word, Baptism, The Sacrament, Holy Absolution, and Prayer.
With the arrival of Lent, we’re given to consider our sin and our need for a Savior. In the weeks to come we will read and hear about Jesus’ betrayal, His arrest and torment… as He is beaten and nailed to a cross. Let us consider our sin that caused all of this to happen.
