Uniting People, Uniting Purposes,
Uniting Paths in Christ King of Glory Lutheran Church believes God loves all people. You don't have to be perfect to walk through these church doors. We believe in expressing that love by serving the community. Come and experience the uplifting glory of God!
The preschool provides a developmental approach to learning in a Christian environment. The children thrive as they experience our caring teachers, facilities, and weekly chapel. |

March 20, 2020 – Latest Update
King of Glory Church Council made two decisions: 1) Worship will be suspended through the month of April; 2) The Childcare and preschool will resume operation on Monday March 30, allowed by a waiver from the California Department of Social Services (PIN 20-04-CCP) to provide essential services for workers who are essential (EMT, Nurses, Police and Fire, etc.).
Because of the unique nature of this pandemic, we will modify any decision, if that is warranted. In the meantime, Pastor Gene will develop a strategy to present the message of Holy Week and Easter through various social platforms. He will present a brief message each Sunday morning on the KOG Facebook Page.
If you have a pastoral care need, please contact Pastor Gene at 805-907-5620.
Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time of adjustment.
Keep the faith; Pray earnestly; Be patient; Be kind. Pastor Gene

March 14, 2020 - Special COVID 19 Epidemic Announcement
Dear members of King of Glory and friends,
In light of current events, Pastor Gene and the church leadership thought it best to cancel worship for the remainder of March. Many of our church members fall into the highly vulnerable population category because of health issues and age, but we are all vulnerable. Pastor Gene and the church leadership will continue to re-evaluate the situation based on the current information that is available.
Though my heart aches for hugs in person, I want to give you each a virtual hug to help through this emergency. Look for opportunities to communicate with our community by telephone. A link to a recorded service will be provided separately.
Peace and grace,
Walt Chandler, Council President

On Sunday, November 8, we dedicated our Peace Pole prayer space, with a simple ceremony after our regular 9:30 a.m. worship. The message - "May Peace Prevail on Earth" - is written in eight languages (English, Arabic, Chinese, German, Greek, Hebrew, Korean, and Spanish, as well as in Braille. All are welcome to use this place off of our upper parking lot for individual prayer times.
