About this church
King of Kings Lutheran Church worships at 8 and 10:30 a.m. Sunday at 1701 Northeast 96th Street in Kansas City's Northland. The 10:30 service is livestreamed through the church website, Facebook, and YouTube. Both gatherings use traditional Lutheran worship with hymns, organ music, Scripture readings, liturgy, prayer, and a children's sermon. Holy Communion is celebrated on the first, third, and fifth Sundays for confirmed members of Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod congregations, a participation practice guests should understand before approaching the table.
King of Kings belongs to the LCMS and summarizes Lutheran belief through grace alone, faith alone, and Scripture alone. The congregation began in 1967 as a daughter church planted by Holy Cross Lutheran Church to serve families north of 72nd Street. Children's ministries include Sunday School, Vacation Bible School, seasonal activities, and a Christmas program. Middle-school students meet for Bible study at 9:30 a.m. Sunday in the lower-level Board Room, alongside confirmation, outings, retreats, service, and camp opportunities. Adult Bible study, choirs, handbells, women's and men's ministries, and community service create other paths into church life. A newcomer can use the 10:30 livestream as a preview or attend either service in person. Families wanting the children's sermon can choose either hour, while middle-school households should plan around the 9:30 class between the two worship services.
