Welcome to Cornerstone Presbyterian Church!

Our goal through Fanning the Flame is to attend to our health as a church. We want to be a healthy, vibrant body of Christ that brings glory to the Lord. Our mission points toward what that looks like for us. Our Effective Structures task force set out to discern the best way for us [...]
