Newsletter | September 9, 2022
Dear Church Family and Friends,
Please pray for Cornerstone. You will notice each week in the bulletin and in this newsletter we have ways we can be praying for the church and her members. We believe in prayer. God, in His infinite wisdom and sovereignty, uses prayer for His glory.
Hear my prayer, O LORD; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness! (Psalm 143:1 ESV)
There are a few specific things I would ask that you pray:
Pray that God would raise up an Assistant Pastor for Students and Families. Pray for that man and his family. Pray for wisdom for the leadership as we search for this man.
Pray for the officer candidates. Pray for their families. Pray for a spirit of wisdom and power in their calling to lead.
Pray for the church staff and officers as the meet next week. Pray that God will give us wisdom, discernment, and strength to fulfill our callings.
Thank you for praying!
The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. (James 5:16 ESV)
See you Sunday!
by His grace and to His praise,
Pastor Wilson

Child Evangelism Fellowship. CEF is a Bible-centered organization composed of born-again believers whose purpose is to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and to establish (disciple) them in the Word of God and in a local church for Christian living. Cornerstone is hoping to partner with CEF to start a Good News Club at Blossomwood Elementary School. Good News Club® is a ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship in which trained teachers meet with groups of children in schools, homes, community centers, churches, just about anywhere the children can easily and safely meet with their parent’s permission. You can learn much more by visiting cefonline.com. In the meantime, we are praying that God would raise up a leader and a group of missionaries from Cornerstone to lead this effort. If you are interested and would like to know more, please contact the church office.
