Vision & COUNCIL

St. John Lutheran Church is:

Christ-Centered

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 
John 14:6 (ESV) 


This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone.  And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”  
Acts 4:11–12 (ESV)   


Bible-Based

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,  that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.   
2 Timothy 3:16–17 (ESV)  

 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.   For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”  Romans 1:16–17 (ESV)  


Family-Focused

 Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.  
Proverbs 22:6 (ESV) 

But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.  2 Timothy 3:14–15 (ESV)  


Mission-Minded
​
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”  
​Matthew 28:18–20 (ESV)
