Weekly Bulletin - April 23rd

Cornerstone Church,

1 John 3:1 (NKJV) ¹ Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

When I was in Jr. High, my dad was the principal of our school. This made for some interesting parent teacher meetings and was especially hard when I would act out and get into trouble. (Which I did way too often)

One of the hardest parts was dealing with the rejection from other kids because of my dad’s role in their lives and discipline. I was an easy target in those days and had to learn quickly how to deal with the insults and taunting.

As children of God, we have the unique blessing of being called His children, of living a life in close relationship to Him. The world does not accept God’s offer of relationship so that has a tendency to cause us to be alienated from them.

This is difficult, and we often tend to want to “fit in” but what we have in relationship with God is so much greater than anything that the world would offer that we would be foolish to trade one relationship for another.

We must strive this week to remember the great honor it is to be called children of God and strive to prioritize our relationship with Him above all else.

- Pastor Joel Johns

Continue to enjoy the songs we sang on Sunday as you spend time with the Lord throughout the week.

Now that we are heading into the summer months, and our snowbirds are heading back north, we are going to transition back to our old service times. We will have 2 services. One at 9am, and the second at 11am. Both of these services will have full children’s programming.

As I’m sure many of you have noticed, the Four Corners area is continuing to grow, and that means our attendance is also. With that being said, we expect that we will need to revert back to three services by the end of the year, so be sure to stay tuned for that.

We also just wanted to say a quick thank you to our volunteers. We are grateful for all you do and we love serving alongside of you. As we make these adjustments, let’s continue to pray that God will use Cornerstone in this area, and that we will be faithful as we seek to serve Him.

Water Night is a fun event we hold every year for our AWANA kids! We're going to have inflatables and super fun games, so if you have a kid in AWANA, bring them out to Water Night on May 3rd. Be sure to have them bring appropriate swimwear!

Mom's Night Out is meant for moms at Cornerstone to get together for a night of fellowship, and a short break from the kiddos. We want this to be an evening of encouragement, and an opportunity to connect with other mothers at our church.
If you would like to come, or for more information, please register using the link below. We hope to see you there!

We know that God has been growing this church rapidly, so with that we know that God is going to continue to bring people that can lead worship in Sunday services, youth, and in our kids church. We are looking for people who are passionate about serving the Lord and about music. If you are interested, please email office@cornerstone.place or fill out the worship team application below and we will reach out with more details!
