St. John's is known as the "Church of the Three Crosses" because of the three large crosses on our front lawn which serve as a landmark in the community. These three crosses also serve as our church's logo.
 
We gather around the cross of Jesus whenever we come together for worship, Bible study, prayer, fellowship and service to others in his name. I invite you to gather with us, and discover the gifts Jesus wants to give you: peace which the world cannot give, true and lasting joy, strength to meet life's challenges, forgiveness of sins, life and salvation.
 
Our congregation is made up of people from many different places and backgrounds. The one thing which unites us is the cross of Jesus because it was on the cross that Jesus gave his life for you, for me, and for the whole world. We now see ourselves and others through the cross of Jesus, striving to love one another as Jesus loves us.
