We invite you to join us every Sunday morning for Sunday School at 9:15 AM and Worship at 10:30 AM. We celebrate the Sacrament of Holy Communion every 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month and we welcome all baptized believers to share with us in this gift of life. We also offer Children's Church each Sunday for our young children where a teacher and helper will provide a wonderful ministry to the children and teach them the Bible on their own level. Join us and bring your children!
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16, NKJV)
St. John Lutheran Church is a country church in southern Ohio and we are a member of the Southern Ohio Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. The church was formed in 1875 by a group of German Lutherans and incorporated and dedicated the same year. We have been sharing God's Word for the past 136 years and we always welcome everyone who chooses to join us for worship and fellowship as we share the Good News of Jesus Christ!

"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you," (Matthew 5:43-44, NKJV)
