Bikes for Nicaragua
On Saturday May 1st, NicaWorks ministry (www.nica.works) will be at KCC from 8am-3pm collecting used bikes (any size and in any condition).
Since 2004, NicaWorks has been helping break the cycle of poverty through economic and spiritual growth. Thousands of families have been blessed by donated bicycles shipped to Nicaragua. In the last four years Knollwood collected 538 bikes and we're hoping to have a big collection this year.

You’ve Been Egged!!
We had the best time egging your families! The kids were so excited to hunt for eggs and get candy, while we were so excited to share why one of the eggs we hid was empty. He has risen indeed! After the kids found all of their eggs, we left them with an extra bag of eggs to egg a friend and invite them to our Easter service. It was a fun way to connect with families over Easter break!
Special thanks to our amazing leaders who helped make it happen: Sandy Rogers, Tammy Hawthorne, Mike and Melinda Peterson, Liz and Mary.

Mission Update: Child Evangelism Fellowship of Northern Virginia
Thank you Knollwood for your faithful Prayer (our lifeline!) and Financial support.
We appreciate your steadfastness in the midst of all the chaos of the day.
Since Covid-19 hit, we went from 55+ Good News Clubs, reaching close to 2,000 children each week, to 13 clubs, reaching just under 200 children each week. However, we have learned that many parents are listening and learning right along with the children! Who knows the results??
In fact, one of our own staff members has been holding a virtual club for her distant family and asked if they wanted to continue; her brother, who has hardly spoken to her for years, told her to continue, because he's receiving so much from the class! We never know how God will work!
Prayer requests now are:
-
For staff as they help teachers utilize Zoom
-
For staff as they work on Podcasts, some of which you can view on cefnova.org
- For the teachers to be able timewise to access training sessions via media.
- The summer program; pray that the Lord will bring the young people (of any age!) of His choice to be trained to hold 5-Day Clubs, which will be either in person or virtually, depending on the location.
- Pray for the new teams working to begin with virtual Good News Clubs.
- Praise the Lord for the continued flow of funds to the ministry during this time of uncertainty!
His faithfulness cannot be thwarted!
Thank you again Knollwood and all you do to press forward for His kingdom!
For the little ones,
Wayne Rautio
