Seeking to glorify God with everything we think, say and do.
LOCALLY
 

We help church members who need assistance in their home with yard work and with painting. We painted a few rooms in the Christian Education wing.

The team continues to provide food boxes, food bags and maintain the food pantry. The food boxes are prepared by a team member and distributed by application from the church office every Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
 

“Operation Blessing” has changed since the beginning of 2010, and we no longer do the program on a monthly basis because the national program had to quit delivering west of the Mississippi.  However, we still try to offer 100+ food boxes as often as we can gather and purchase surplus food for a distribution.  The food boxes are available to community members on a first-come, first-serve basis.  We limit the boxes to 1-box per family so we are able to distribute to as many homes as possible.

“Cornerstone Mission” food is purchased with the money collected from the recycling projects and a meal is prepared by our Mission Team one day a month. Approximately 85 men, women and children are served at the Mission on a daily basis, with the help of other churches and individuals in the community.

We also provide monetary assistance within the church for individuals and groups requesting assistance with projects.
