Don’t Miss These Events

Good morning, Cornerstone!

Tomorrow we continue our journey through Revelation: Behold Your King as Pastor Doug Drainville opens the letter to the church in Philadelphia (Revelation 3:7–13). We’ll see you at the 8:45 AM and 10:30 AM Services.

Fall Fest 2026 - Thank you!
Thank you, Cornerstone, for a wonderful Fall Fest last Saturday. It was a joy to welcome so many families from our community for an evening of food, games, and fun. Thank you to every volunteer who set up, served, greeted, and stayed to clean up.  Thank you for all the candy donations.  Your hard work made it possible for our neighbors to feel at home here. Please keep praying for the families we met, that they would come to know the love of Jesus.
