Welcome to St. John Lutheran Church: Meet Our Pastor Marin Cerchez
Marin Cerchez, grew up in Eastern Europe when Christianity was persecuted. If you had a Bible in your possession, you'd get three years in prison. He was an atheist, a medical doctor, and a university professor. Then, about 20 years ago, his world changed. The Holy Spirit called and enlightened him. Since then, he has been passionate about Jesus, evangelism, and apologetics. Read full bio here.
