One Sunday each month the Hispanic community of St. John's offers Lutheran Tamales for sale. They are prepared by our members, a delicious dish, which reflects the cultures and identities represented in our community. Funds raised through the sale are used to support families in need and the Hispanic ministry of the church.


The Spanish guitar group meets Sundays at 9:20am to rehearse songs from the Book of Liturgy and Singing and other Hispanic hymnals. The group is part of the liturgy and music team that lead the celebration of the Spanish-language Mass every Sunday. Bring your guitar and join us!
