The Word on Wednesday
John Chapter 10
Each Wednesday Pastor Chris shares a special message with us. He's currently focusing on the Gospel of John as we read through it as a church family. Connect with us at 1:00 p.m. For previous episodes, click here!

*******************

Please note: Just want you to be aware of a change that we have made in our YouTube.com postings. Beginning now, the complete Sunday service that is live-streamed each week will continue to be available just through that day. After that time, only the Sunday message will be able to be viewed.
Knollwood's Fall Emphasis
Anchored or Drifting?
This fall, as a church, we are reading through the Gospel of John. Pastor Mark is preaching each Sunday from the book, and Community Groups are discussing their observations from it as well. This is part of a focus on being anchored to Jesus and being careful about “drifting” from an intimate walk with Christ, especially during this crazy time of the COVID pandemic.
You are encouraged to join with others in engaging with the Gospel of John even if you haven’t been reading to this point. Here is the assigned reading portion for next week (week of November 1): John, chapter 10.

Anchor yourself in God’s Word and you will find yourself increasingly anchored in Jesus.
Operation Christmas Child

The COVID 19 global pandemic has disrupted everyday life for millions of people around the world. As the world wrestles with this pandemic, children around the world need hope now more than ever. Filling an “Operation Christmas Child Shoebox” is a way you can help. Each shoebox filled with toys and other fun items is an opportunity for you to show how much you care.
 
KCC is again partnering with Samaritan’s Purse for “OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD OUTREACH”. OCC shoeboxes will be available for pick-up at the church on Sundays in October in the front lobby. Instructions for packing and shipping will be included in each shoebox.
 
Just fill it and return it to the church no later than Sunday, November 15th.
If you have any questions please email me at npjudy@hotmail.com or call me at 703-314-9857.
 
Thanks and have fun!!

Did you know that Knollwood Children's Ministry has it's very own Facebook group for Children's Ministry parents? We post upcoming events, curriculum, pictures of our lovely children, and more.

In November, we'll be talking about family. Fights. Fractures. Changes. Shouldn't there be more when it comes to our family matters? When it comes to our faith, family tension, and more, find out how much can change when we learn that family matters.
