Our Interim Pastor - Rev. Dr. Carol A. Lindsay
Pastor Carol came to Abiding Love on 
September 1, 2024.  She is semi-retired and lives with partner, Jeanne Elmuccio, in Plainfield, NJ with their two "kids," standard poodles, Toby & Reba.  Pastor Carol has been in the NJ Synod for 36 years - serving for 22 of those years most recently at Calvary Lutheran in Cranford.  Several of her calls have been intentional interim ministries and she is eagerly exploring the possibilities of our newly consolidated congregation.  In her short time with us she expresses, "I am very much enjoying the people of this church and the challenges this call represents!"  Get to know Pastor Carol and communicate with her on Sundays at worship & coffee hour or by phone or email.
Worship Update

The Holy Spirit is doing amazing things! 

On behalf of Nativity Evangelical Lutheran Church, we are thrilled to share that our congregations have decided to move forward with Consolidation!!
Consolidation means our two congregations will officially become one congregation with a new name, new bylaws, new logo, etc. What will NOT change is our commitment to always put God's work first in our congregational life. In fact, consolidation gives us so many more resources to more fully engage in doing God's work, and nothing is more exciting than that!
We have spent a considerable amount of time on this path, and both congregations are so grateful for it. Everything in God's time, and here we are, ready to honor our individual traditions and move forward to create new ones.
Watch this space for information about the process and our progress! We are so grateful to God for this opportunity to serve Him and all His many blessings.

As we grow together with Nativity Lutheran Church, we worship together in Kendall Park full time. Every Sunday at 9:30 am, our two congregations will gather as one to celebrate our faith.


Please join our warm and friendly community for worship. Come as you are as everyone is always welcome. The only thing missing is you!

We have a new name!!
We still have much to do to make this "official" (paperwork, etc.) but for now, are celebrating and getting used to our new moniker!
Live stream worship!
We now live stream Sunday services on Facebook! Check out Christ the King's and Nativity's Facebook pages to watch! You can check out past services as well.

Christ the King and Nativity Lutheran Churches welcomes people of all ages and backgrounds, with joys and sorrows, gifts and flaws, to come be loved by God.

Rejoicing in God's grace, sustained by God's word and inspired by God's spirit, we care for others, work for justice, pray for peace and share the gospel of Christ. As we journey through life and its struggles, our faith and trust in God comforts us.  


Please feel free to join us any Sunday or contact us anytime!


We are a congregation of the New Jersey Synod

of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
