Jan 10 - New Bible Information Class

Bible Information Class is a series of 18 lessons that covers the basic doctrines of our Lutheran church. Participating is a great way to learn more about what we teach at St. John and get a better understanding of Scripture. Some take the class simply to learn more, and some take the class with the desire to eventually become members at St. John.

It does take a bit of a commitment, but we try to help out by offering a class on Tuesday evenings via Zoom. This allows parents to stay home and not worry about child care or traveling back to St. John in the evening. In-person options are also possible based on participants’ interest. Mr. Retzlaff conducts these classes, so if you are interested in signing up or just investigating the possibility, please contact him at david.retzlaff@stjohnslib.com. A new round of classes is scheduled to begin during the week of January 26.

Jan 26 - Lutheran School Sunday with School Open House and Chili Cook-Off

Join us Sunday, January 26, in celebrating more than 50 years of Lutheran Education at St. John.

We start the day with our preschool through 8th grade school children singing in our 9 a.m. worship service. That will be followed with a school open house after church. This will give you a chance to visit with the teachers, check out the classrooms, vote for this year's yearbook cover, and participate in a School Scavenger Hunt. We will then head down to our fellowship area for our annual Chili Cook-Off at 11 a.m.

The event is free to attend. RSVP and sign up to compete in the cook-off at www.stjohnslib.com/rsvp.
