New Easter Series - Journey To The Cross

We are launching into a special, 7 week series that will walk us through the final 48 hours of Jesus' life.  It's called "Journey to the Cross" and begins Sunday March 6th with a message entitled "Understanding Lent".  You are invited to join the KGF church family on an intentional 40 day journey to Easter in the following four areas: Fasting, Filling, Finances & Friday

Hear the full story this Sunday.  In the meantime, here's the graphic for the series, as well as the detailed list of what to expect between now and Easter .  And a prayer of reflection for Lent.  May God use this season to draw us closer to Him!

Prayer for Lent

“We seek to open ourselves up before God, and to hear anew the call "Come unto me!" We seek to recognize and respond afresh to God’s presence in our lives and in our world. We seek to place our needs, our fears, our failures, our hopes, our very lives in God’s hands, again. And we seek, by abandoning ourselves in Jesus’ death, to recognize again who God is, to allow His transforming grace to work in us once more, and to come to worship Him on Easter Sunday with a fresh victory and hope that goes beyond the new clothes, the Spring flowers, the happy music.

Perhaps we should take off our righteous robes just long enough during this 40 days to put ashes on our own heads, to come before God with a new humility that is willing to confess, "Lord, be merciful to me, a sinner." Maybe we should be willing to prostrate ourselves before God and plead, "Lord, in my hand no price I bring; simply to the cross I cling." That might put us in a position to hear God in ways that we have not heard Him in a long time. And it may be the beginning of a healing for which we have so longed

O Lord, begin with me. Here. Now.
