Happy October, Cornerstone Family! Don't forget that this Sunday we're having one service at 10:00AM. We'll be sharing an important update on our plans for our financial future. Our guest preacher, Adel Thalos, will preaching on 2 Corinthians 8:1-15 with a sermon titled, "Life is not Life if it is not Generous". You can read more about Adel below.


Note: There will be no Kids Sunday School, but we will provide nursery care for kids 0-4 years old. Activity bags will be in the lobby for kids attending the worship service.

Adel felt a call to ministry in his early years and went on to graduate from Denver Seminary. He’s served as a pastor in Wichita, KS and a suburb of Atlanta, GA. He came into the EPC in 2011, serving as pastor in Chattanooga, TN while serving as chair of the General Assembly Theology committee for 5 years. In 2017, God called him into transitional ministry in the EPC and currently resides in Excelsior Springs with his wife Lynne of 32 years. They have 3 adult sons: Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He is originally from the country of Egypt.

Thank You from Blue Valley Food Pantry!

Dear Cornerstone Congregation, 

We can’t begin to express how grateful we are for your generous donations. You fully stocked our shelves and many of the items you donated are already in the hands of our patrons. Students were able to practice vocational skills when sorting and scanning in donations, stocking shelves, and checking out and sacking the items for customers. Thank you so much for supporting us and our mission, and we hope to partner with you again in the future. 

 

Sincerely, 

The Blue Valley Food Pantry
