Education at Saint Johns Lutheran Church

We offer education opportunities for all ages. There is Sunday School for children ages 3-High school on Sunday mornings as well as Adult Bible Study and confirmation classes for Grades 7-8

Currently we are studying stories of Jesus in the New testament, learning more about trusting God in all circumstances of life. Our weekly offerings are supporting Samaritan's Purse outreach to farming communities in thrid world countries.
