An Empty Seat!

Check out the video shown at this Sunday's Congregational Meeting! A look at Cornerstone's history and its future! Thanks for your hard work on this, Pastor Dave!

Changes are Coming!

This past Sunday afternoon, the congregation of Cornerstone voted to refurbish our sanctuary for increased capacity and flexibility. The walls will be painted, the carpeting will be replaced, and the pews will be replaced with chairs. We praise the Lord for His provision for our church through the years, and we look forward to all He has in store for us in the days to come. While we patiently wait for the Lord to provide a new home for Cornerstone, this change will serve as a "down payment on our future" (Pastor Jim). Praise the Lord!

Exciting Sunday Planned!


This Sunday will be our Children’s Choir Presentation (8:30 AM & 10:30 AM):

“The First Leon”

You will want to get here early!

This is especially true for those of you who are camera buffs and videographers.

Pray that the Message the children are communicating will be received in a powerful way by all.

Invite family members, friends and neighbors!

This is a non-threatening event that you can invite people to church. People love Christmas music and they love children. While here they will hear the real message of Christmas!

Getting ready for Guests

You can help us get ready for guests in the following ways!

Park at King Ave School

This is a great need! Dad’s serve your family by dropping them off and parking at King Ave

Making Room in the Pews

Sit up front! Leave the back seats open for late comers and new people

Move towards the center – so the ushers can sit people on the ends.

Help! Please move to the front! - PR

That sounds too direct. Okay, please move to the front of the church. Why? This will leave at least the last two rows of pews open on both sides for guests or latecomers to church. Why is it that people will pay premium dollars to get front row seats at a sporting event but always want the back pews in a church? Our newcomers feel the most at home near the back. This morning we had some difficulty trying to seat new people. Seats were open in the front rows but our guests didn’t want them. Put yourself in their shoes. Imagine arriving to an unknown event that you were nervous about attending and the ushers seated you in the front row with everyone looking at you! That is how our guests feel! So during our crowded days, when many are attending church for the first time, please consider moving up nearer the front! Thanks for your help!
