Our Bishop Pryse loving and serving from afar. The people of St John’s by the Sea will continue with neighbouring Lutherans to be a new branch on the vine we all share.
People loving and serving each other in Christ’s name.
For 133 years St John’s By The Sea Lutheran Church gathered to worship, proclaim, inspire and serve. Today was the closing service. Today was not the last day of serving in Christ’s name. The people remain. And they want to continue to serve.
