Ash Wednesday and Lent information.
Welcome to Lent
Worship with us
Greetings in Christ,
The Coronavirus has challenged congregations world-wide to be church without meeting in-person for worship and other events. The Kingo community quickly met this challenge by providing worship via videos and Zoom. We may not be able to gather at the church building, but we still gather as the church every week.
Worship and faith formation videos are currently available online.

Even though we all hope to reconnect in-person, we are taking precautions to ensure the well-being of every person who uses the Kingo building by following the re-entry guidelines for building use created by Kingo's Re-Entry Transition Task Force.
Jesus taught that the greatest commandment is to love God and neighbor (Matthew 22:35-40), which often means making sacrifices for the good of our neighbor. Love for you motivates our decisions. May you know the fullness of God's love.
In Christ,
Pastor Carolyn Sellers Rizzo
MIDDAY PRAYER
We join our voices together as ONE in CHRIST:
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore, we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult.
(Psalm 46:1-3)
Holy Spirit, reveal yourself to us at this time. Watch over all national
leaders and citizens. Protect those most vulnerable and susceptible to this
virus. Build up health care workers with perseverance. Now is the time that we
are your church without buildings. Show us how to connect and care for each
other, our neighbors, and strangers.
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
forever and ever.
Amen.

a gift is a gift
At Kingo we believe that:
- God owns everything.
- God gives abundantly.
- Trusting in God's goodness, we share all that we have been given.
- As resources circulate in the community and world, God's blessings are recycled to create more blessings.
Your gift to Kingo, in any amount, is a blessing. A gift is a gift, and we say, "Thank you!"
