A Mighty Fortress
If you've been on Broadway or Washington Streets in Northeast Minneapolis, you've passed the stone church known as St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Minneapolis. Built like a castle, it stands as a reminder to our community of the Mighty Fortress that is our God. Our church stands to give God's refuge and peace to all who are wearied by the struggles of life.
Offering peace and safety
But don't let that fortress-like appearance fool you. We reach out in the peace and safety that our Lord provides. Our doors are open to all with various opportunities to worship the God who has sent his greatest treasure, his only Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, to rescue and reclaim us from our hopeless wandering under the dark canopy of sin, death, and the power of the devil.
St. John's, associated with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS), is a Bible-based church located in the melting pot of Northeast Minneapolis. St. John's is a multi-ethnic congregation with a strong commitment to urban ministry.
Check out the rest of our website. Or, better yet, drop in for a visit on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. For over 140 years, this congregation has shared the Gospel of salvation through Christ with Northeast Minneapolis and beyond. We invite you to share in the peace that only Christ can bring.
