Who We Are

"I have my Bachelors in Pastoral Ministry from Lancaster Bible College, and am currently working on my Masters of Divinity at Capitol Bible Seminary. I am married to my awesome wife Anne Itzel since September of 2019, and we are currently living in Columbia. We love to spend our time serving together at Forcey, in the youth and young adult ministries, and seeing people grow together in knowledge and love for God. When we are not at Forcey, we like to spend time on walks with our dog or biking around the neighborhood."

Pastor Michael Foster holds a BA in English Education from Elmira College, an MDiv from Capital Bible Seminary, and a DMin from Baptist Bible Seminary. "We have loved Forcey ever since I interned in children’s ministry and directed the Day Camp in the early 2000s. We served for 13 years in Buffalo, NY before returning to the DMV and Forcey. Meg and I met in college where we both came to trust in Jesus and we married in 2002. She teaches Kindergarten at Forcey Christian School and is also a gifted singer and mentor to young women. We have the privilege of parenting six amazing children from three different continents. I love coaching soccer, playing guitar and songwriting, disc golf, and bike trips with our kids. Our greatest passion is to help people know and follow Jesus, who has been so good to us. When you can’t find us around Forcey, we’re likely supporting our kids at Paint Branch High School, exploring state parks in Maryland, or swimming in a mountain lake up in the Adirondacks of New York."
