15 Years of Service Celebration!

Join us this Sunday between services to celebrate Carole Ingram's 15th Anniversary as organist for our congregation! 

We are so happy she is part of our team and look forward to thanking her for all the years of service! 


All-Church Serve Day - October 14, 8am-1pm


Save the date for our next All Church Serve Day! We will meet at the Cornerstone offices at 8am for coffee and donuts and break into groups to serve as a church family at  Urban Farming Guys,  Cross-Lines Community Outreach,  New House Domestic Violence Shelter, and  New Hope Food Pantry.

Sign up isn't necessary, but will help us organize groups more efficiently. You can do so BY CLICKING THIS LINK and filling out the form. 

We look forward to coming together to seek the welfare of our city. 



Financial Update

Cornerstone's strong financial momentum continued in August with monthly giving at 113% of budget, and year-to-date giving at 111% of budget ($55K favorable). 

Expenses remain below budget, resulting in a healthy financial position heading into the final third of the year. 

Steady giving to the Rise Up & Build fund has allowed us to shrink the balance on the Quivira property loan to below $130,000. 
Inter-Generational Musical!


Auditions may be over, but there's still so much to do! Would you like to be involved in the musical, but aren't interested in singing? We'd love your help with sets, costumes, or promotion for the event!  Email nataliem@cornerstoneks.org to volunteer.
Cornerstone Kids Movie Night!

Mark your calendars for Kids Movie Night at the Reno's home, Friday, September 29, at 5pm.

Give your kids a chance to hang out with their church friends while you get to know the other parents at Cornerstone better!

Working Women Discipleship

There's still time to join in! - Next meeting is September 24, the Working Women's Discipleship Group will begin studying 
Thriving in Babylon , a RightNow Media study. All women are welcome to join!
 
From the publisher: 

These are confusing times for many Christians. Traditional biblical values are not only rejected; it seems as if they're attacked on every front. It's all happened at warp speed, leaving many of us spiritually and culturally disoriented or even fearful, frustrated, and angry. How can we spiritually survive in an increasingly spiritually hostile environment? And is there any hope for the next generation?
 
Based on the story of Daniel, e ach session will includes real-life stories of people struggling to thrive in an ever-increasing godless society. Though Daniel lived thousands of years ago, he has much to teach us today.

Meetings will be on the following Sundays at Shelley Etzenhouser's home ( 10216 W. 125th Terr., OPKS 66213 ) : 
  • September 24; October 8, 22; and November 5
Ironworks is BACK!
