This Sunday, Cornerstone will be donating all the funds from our monthly benevolence collection to Christ Church in Katy, Texas, a medium-sized church (PCA) in the heart of the affected area. Christ Church is cooperating with other churches in the hurricane-ravaged area to respond to people both inside and outside their community; therefore, 100% of what you give will go to help hurricane victims in Houston. You can find out more about the Christ Church here. 

We will continue to monitor Houston's needs as well as the effects of Hurricane Irma as we plan other special offerings this fall.

Men and women are invited to "An Evening with Darryl Strawberry" on Wednesday, September 20. 

Hundreds have already purchased their tickets to this special event happening right here at Cornerstone on Wednesday evening September 20th! Darry's message is one of hope as he found true redemption from a life plagued with addictions and abuse through the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. This is an outreach opportunity happening right here at Cornerstone that you do not want to miss!  

There are still some tickets left so don't delay! The cost is $15 per person and tickets must be purchased in advance prior to Sunday, September 17. Doors open at 6:30pm and the event will begin at 7:00pm. Since space is limited, this is an advance ticket purchase only event. No tickets will be sold at the door, so sign up early to secure your ticket(s). Please note that Darryl will be on hand to share his story-no autographs will be signed. 

 Men and women are invited to this special evening as Darryl shares personal stories from his long MLB career and how he found true redemption and restoration from his troubles and addictions. This is a wonderful outreach opportunity so log on...purchase a block of tickets...and invite friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to join you for this special evening.

Here's the scoop! We could use more volunteers in our growing Children's Ministry. We have needs for volunteers for various programs throughout the week.
