Hi Donald,
the problem is due to the fact that the Pingomatic website
https://pingomatic.com/ has the SSL certificate that is expired (image visible below)
I contacted them reporting this, but they still have not updated the SSL certificate.
In this case to solve you have to navigate to the website
https://pingomatic.com/ in your browser and grant access and an exception.
After that you can ping successfully on your site
https://usncva.org
Even better, it would be adding a permanent exception in your browser for
https://pingomatic.com/ so that you won't have to do this again in future.
Regards,
John
