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.

A Modern-Day Media Twist on the Crucifixion/Resurrection of JesusSt. John Kids Present an Entertaining and Educational
Play Connecting Today's People to the Living Christ The kids of St. John Lutheran Church presented a play titled "Breaking News" for the congregation on Palm Sunday, March 28, 2021, that was both amusing and thought-provoking. What if modern-day media was tasked with covering the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ? In acting roles, Chloie, Clareissa, Ashley, Lucy, Daniel, Anna and Agata donned colorful costumes, parodied current trends, and performed a song. We all thank Tracy and Randy Scott, and all of the parents who made this possible. Watch the video HERE ON ST.JTV YouTube Channel.
