“Mission was in their bones…the church’s life clearly is mission. The church is mission. That is the identity we have from our heritage…”
– Dr. Eugene Wehrli describing the German Evangelical people.
St. Johns’ first Pastor was Louis Nollau, a Missionary from Germany. He was a dynamic force in the founding of many of the mission institutions of the German Evangelical Church. That spirit of service to the Lord continues at St. Johns and in the United Church of Christ.
Serving God by serving others is our mission! We provide strong on-going support to a wide range of missions – walking along side and in partnership with those in need. Our range of work has expanded and evolved to meet
today’s needs.
