St. John's Lutheran Church

About this church

St. John's Lutheran Church in Dover, Delaware, is a congregation of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod that has been serving Dover since 1923. The Divine Service with Holy Communion is held every Sunday at 9:15 a.m. at 113 Lotus Street, and the service is also livestreamed, with past services on the church's YouTube page. Worship is liturgical with a modern feel and follows the seasons of the church year, with moments to stand or kneel. Bulletins are posted online, and children's bulletins are available at the door. An education hour with adult Bible study follows at 10:30 a.m., and on the second Sunday of the month a coffee and donut fellowship follows worship. Confirm times on the website.

Children's Church meets on the first and fourth Sundays of the month. Through the week, a ladies' Bible study meets on Tuesdays at 1:00 p.m. in the church basement and an evening Bible study meets on Wednesdays at 6:00 p.m., with midweek worship replacing it during Advent and Lent. The ministry list also includes Stephen Ministry, Meals for the Homeless, Orphan Grain Train, an altar guild, ushers, readers, and Lutheran Women in Mission. The website has an I'm New page that explains what to expect, and an autism awareness ministry coordinator is listed.
