Pastor's Corner

Dear Church Family and Friends,

This next week, June 20-24, the 49th General Assembly of the PCA will be held in Birmingham, Alabama at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex. This is one of the rare occasions when GA is hosted close to home. I want to invite you to visit GA if you would like to make a trip down to Birmingham. If you have never attended a GA worship service, then you are in for a treat! It is always so encouraging to worship with thousands of other brothers and sisters in Christ and to experience how large the body of Christ is!

Please be in prayer for the Assembly. Here are some ways you can pray.

  • Please be in prayer for myself, Brian Russ, John Bise and Frank Cohee as we will be serving as commissioners from Cornerstone to the Assembly.
  • Please be in prayer for REs John Bise and Frank Cohee as they have significant leadership roles at the denominational level.
  • Please pray for a spirit of wisdom and unity at the Assembly.
  • Pray that God would keep the PCA Faithful to the Scriptures, True to the Reformed Faith, and Obedient to the Great Commission. 
As you pray and follow along with the weeks events, here are some resources:

See you Sunday! 

by His grace and to His praise, 

Pastor Wilson 


P.S. Congratulations to Shep and Beverly Park celebrating 50 years of marriage! Thank you Shep and Beverly for being such a great example of God's faithfulness.
