Helping Our Neighbors
Are you seeking an opportunity to serve our Lord by helping your neighbors? We each have unique gifts given to us to share and not limited to only Sunday mornings.
St. John's Lutheran Church actively supports our London Ohio community's Emergency Food and Shelter organizations. Please let us know if you can donate an afternoon to prepare much needed food for our local friends that are struggling.

- Welcome table

See the church secretary for contact information if you can volunteer or donate to our friends in Christ. (Go to the Contact Us page.) We are also looking for new ways to spread the Good news, so any ideas are welcome!
Maggie is looking for all sorts of baskets and shoe boxes. See her if you can help.

Publicly Engaged Church
We are a publicly engaged church that rolls up our sleeves and gets to work. We do God’s work in the world, the work of restoring and reconciling communities. Because we are grounded in God’s love and forgiveness, we are well equipped to live and serve here and now, in the world, with all its complexities, tensions and ambiguities. There is no aspect of life in which God is not active, no place where God is not present. And this is exactly where we are called to participate in God’s work, in the thick of life, embracing individuals, families and communities that are hungry for hope and healing, justice and peace, advocates and partners.
Our faith and our call to boldly serve and love our neighbor take us into some interesting and challenging aspects of life: advocacy, corporate social responsibility, racial justice, science and ethics, peacemaking, justice for women, social issues, and community organizing. We are drawn into every corner of life, society and its institutions to bring the good news of Jesus Christ and to work for lasting, positive change that upholds human dignity.
