Church Resources for Worship and COVID-19
​
St. John Lutheran Church is dedicated to providing a safe environment to gather and receive God's good gifts in His Divine Service to us. Below you will find a number of audio interviews from Lutheran Public Radio's "Issues Etc." where leaders in our Church Body address the state of the Church and it's pastors and laity during a pandemic. Please utilize and share these resources with family and friends. If you have any questions or concerns with our church's practices regarding safely worshiping together in person, please reach out to our Pastor, Marshal Frisque, at revfrisque@gmail.com.

What if I get COVID-19 or Share it in Church?
​
We get sick, and we cannot stop it. In fact, ever sickness (cold or flu) we have ever had we received from someone else and most likely gave it to another person. This is not something we wantonly want to do, however, with our best precautions we may pass a sickness along. This includes COVID-19. We cannot attach a moral stigma to passing on an illness.
