Faith, Love and Hope
Faith, Love and Hope is the theme of our stewardship campaign this fall. Throughout the next few weeks, some of our congregation members will share with you in videos what those words mean to them. We start with Doris Libben, who tells us what faith means to her. Our stewardship campaign supports the missions, outreach and operations of our church.
If you would like to contribute, you can do so online (one-time or recurring) here https://secure.myvanco.com/L-Z6FJ/home or through our offering. Thank you for your support! We couldn't do all that we do without you.
Saint John Evangelical Lutheran Church, Port Clinton
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! On behalf of the people who gather to worship, learn and serve at St. John Lutheran Church, we welcome you to our Web site as you learn more about our mission.
You are invited to come experience the unconditional love of God in Jesus as it is proclaimed, experienced and extended when we gather to worship. It is our church's desire to grow in faith, to participate in fellowship, and to serve others
We would enjoy getting to know you better and answering questions you might have about the Christian faith, or what Lutherans believe, or any specific practices of this Christian community. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
Once more, in Christ’s name, welcome to St. John Lutheran Church. Come and join us as we seek to make Christ known.
