Dear Cornerstone Family,
Thank you for your prayers and support for our summer mission teams to Joni & Friends family camp and the Yakama Indian Reservation with Sacred Road Ministries! We are thankful for our ongoing partnership with both of these ministries. It was such an encouragement to enjoy fellowship together at the missions fundraiser this past Sunday and your generosity raised over $4,000 for the summer mission teams. Thank you to all who helped grill and provide baked goods, it was all very delicious!
Please continue praying for both of these teams as they prepare for their trips.
The Yakama team trip is June 1-8 and the Joni & Friends camp is June 23-28.
You can read more about Sacred Road Ministries’ short-term mission trips HERE.
