About St John's Evangelical Lutheran
St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Poughkeepsie welcomes visitors to experience two Sunday worship services designed to meet different preferences. The contemporary service at 9:00 AM in the Fellowship Hall and the traditional service at 10:30 AM in the Main Worship Space both emphasize community, relationship-building, and connection with Jesus. Music holds a central role in worship at St. John's, reflecting Martin Luther's belief that music is a gift from God and an essential part of faith practice. The congregation actively participates through hymns, contemporary music, handbells, brass ensembles, and other instrumental music. The church also serves the broader community through its food pantry, which is open to the public on the first and third Sundays of each month, and hosts various community events throughout the year, including celebrations of the church's 125th anniversary.
