February Mission Focus-Michelle Foster (Reliant)
Michelle Foster serves with Sojourn College Ministry in Louisville, KY. She works with college students at the University of Louisville, seeking to reach them with the Gospel, build them up as His church and send them out into the world. She serves the college ministry by discipling young women, reaching out to students on campus and providing administrative support.
Please pray for:
- The community group that Michelle and her husband, Ben, lead on campus. There are many students in their group who are figuring out what they believe; pray they come to follow Jesus!
- The student leadership team's goal to have 300 gospel conversations by the end of the semester - they are about 1/6 of the way there!

Inclement Weather
As we head into the winter season, please note:
If there is a need to cancel Sunday activities due to snow, a notice to that effect will be on the Knollwood website. Click on the word "ALERTS" at the top right portion of the home page. It will also be posted on our Facebook page (
@KnollwoodCC)
If we cancel, the notice will be posted as soon as we make that decision. If no cancellation notice is there, we will have services as usual. (Hopefully we will be able to make that decision by Saturday evening).
During the week, the church follows the Fairfax County Public School lead. If the schools close, then any regularly scheduled meetings, Bible studies, etc. will be cancelled.
