Welcome to the St. John Lutheran Church Website!
IMPORTANT - Pastor's dad, Chuck Jones, has graciously offered to create and maintain a YouTube site which contains all of the Sunday sermons. Please press the connection button right below to take you to the You Tube site where videos files are stored. Or, for the newest sermon & lesson audio files, continue to look below on this page or go to the Newsletters and Sermons page on this website.
St. John Lutheran Church is looking into Live-streaming future worship services. They can be viewed on Facebook LIVE as they happen or downloaded at a future convenient time. We are currently working out the challenges of making this change in format and will keep you posted. Until then, enjoy the VIDEOS below.
Sunday, August 10th:
For some mysterious reason I was having a little trouble with the mouth of the speaker/singer and the soundtrack of the video matching on video playback this morning. If you experience this, just click in the "progress bar" at the bottom of the video box when it comes up and this should fix it. Sorry for the inconvenience. --- Pastor Michael
