Dear Church Family and Friends,
Last weekend was truly special. I enjoyed getting to worship with you all, but there was one especially memorable moment for our student ministry. Sunday morning, during the second service, we baptized three of our youth students and their younger sister. Graden, Kalena, Micaiah, and Selah Lomax came forward for baptism and church membership. Their faces were filled with joyful smiles that were contagious. Praise God for the cleansing work of Christ on the cross and the life he won for his church through his resurrection.
God is at work in the student ministry at Cornerstone. We have been going through the Apostles Creed on Wednesday nights. Students have been engaging in discussion during small groups, and it seems to have been a fruitful semester! Thank you for your support and your constant encouragement to us. Thank you for praying for us.
Please continue to pray for our midweek gatherings as we have a few more together before summer break. Pray for our trip to RYM (Reformed Youth Ministries) this summer in July! Please pray that we would grow in our knowledge of Christ and his love for us, and in knowledge of ourselves, and our community would deepen as we fellowship together.
His love never fails.
Rev. Chris Moody

Missions Moment
Each week we want to highlight one of our missional partnerships. Please take a moment to learn about these wonderful ministries that Cornerstone has the privilege of serving alongside.
This week's highlighted ministry:
PCA General Assembly
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30 | 11:00 am-1:00 pm | THE JACKSON CENTER
How are you "leveraging" the money God has entrusted to you?
Russ Crosson, seasoned financial expert, and Ken Boa, respected theologian, co-authored the book Leverage: Using Temporal Wealth for Eternal Gain.
Leverage was written to challenge conventional views of money and inspire a biblical vision of wealth and stewardship. At the upcoming even both Crosson and Boa will give a keynote talk, offering proven wisdom and practical guidance on how Christians can leverage God's earthly gifts for eternal impact through biblical generosity.
You are sure to walk away with a renewed vision for how God is calling you to "leverage" the financial resources he has entrusted to you. Purchase your tickets here!
