COVID-19

Plan to Gather

Out of love and care for our neighbors, and as members of the human community, St. John Lutheran Church will open in four phases. Following the CDC data displayed on the Brown County website and recommendations from the Wisconsin Council of Churches, we will work and gather physically with the following conditions in mind.
