It's STILL all about Jesus

Welcome

 

Welcome, and thank you for visiting St. John Lutheran Church, Ruma, online. We hope that our website helps you keep in touch and learn more about our church and the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. 

 

If you are new to the area, we would love to meet you and to share the love of Jesus Christ, our Savior.

​

2023 marked the 175th anniversary of our congregation.  Several events throughout the year highlighted our history. Learn more about that here.

Our Mission

 

From our constitution:

The purpose of this congregation shall be to give honor and glory to the Triune God, to carry out His will, to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all the world, to manifest the unity of our faith in Jesus Christ as God and Savior, to foster Christian fellowship and love, to extend a helping hand to human need, and to achieve its objectives by the preaching of the Word of God, by the administration of the sacraments, by prayer and Christian hymns and by the religious instruction of all its members, according to the confessional standard of the Orthodox Evangelical Lutheran Church.
