We are a small, intimate, and vibrant community of individuals and families called by the Lord to join Him in His important work, sharing the gospel with our lost neighbors, thereby working to accomplish the Great Commission. At Cornerstone, our vision is to be "A community of disciples making disciples." In our venture to accomplish this vision, there are many avenues through which we grow as disciples and make other disciples. We offer many opportunities to study God's Word, grow spiritually, and to serve our Lord at Cornerstone:
Worship
At Cornerstone you'll find a blended style of music from peppy Baroque tunes skillfully performed by a professional worship team on period instruments to modern praise songs of the 70's and 80's performed on electric piano, electric cello and amplified acoustic guitar. We combine the great hymns of the faith with sound lyrics of dogmatic theology with the contemporary Christian music you can hear on today's Christian radio, tunes that keep you humming and worshipping our Lord all week long. Several youth play in our ensemble which includes three trumpets, a cellist, and a violinist, other instrumentalists are also welcome. We are blessed to have Elder Kerry Willingham, a professional Oboist, recently retired from the United States Army Band, and his wife, Donna, a violinist for the Marine Band "The President's Own" to lead our wonderful music programme. Under their batons we have also begun a group called The Cornerstone Tintinabulators (Hand Bell Choir) which is open to new players. So, come to service prepared to participate in worshipping our Risen Lord!
