JOIN US!  CHECK CALENDAR FOR MEETINGS & EVENTS.

  • The "Youth Group" meets every other Sunday evening during the school year from 6:00 - 8:00 PM in Kaiser Auditorium, unless notified of time changes for certain events.  "Youth Group" is open to anyone in grades 5-12.  We love to see new faces!  Come join the fun activities and fellowship; meet new people; participate in service projects, community events, synod events; and most of all, share your faith.  You are guaranteed to walk away with many memories.

  • The "Youth Program" is open to anyone from pre-K through grade 12.  Events are held throughout the year, such as movie nights, ice skating, scavenger hunts, trips, and snow tubing at Blue Mountain. 

  • Sunday School News ... Each month we will focus on a story from the Old Testament.  The lesson for October 2011 will be on Samson and Delilah, one of the best known Bible stories in the Old Testament.  Just like a classic Hollywood movie, this story has a hero, a villain, a plot, and a sad ending.  A great story of how God makes us strong, but picking the wrong friends can make us weak.

Keep checking the "Youth Events Calendar" below for new activities.   Also, check the "ELCA Youth" web site to learn about Youth ministries.

Contact Sherry Koch, Youth Director, for more information about the "Youth Group" and/or "Youth Program".  She looks forward to hearing from you!

NOTE:      Meter parking has been extended to 9:00 PM.  You can use the parking
              lot for evening activities.

In the Event of Inclement Weather ...

If snow or ice necessitate the canceling of worship or other activities at St. John's, please tune into WFMZ-TV, channel 69.  That station is kind enough to list all cancellations as a "crawler" at the bottom of their telecasts. 
Thank you very much!
