Today in Worship– We turn to Acts 20:17-38 for the next two weeks as Pastor Vogel concludes his time at Cornerstone. In this passage the Apostle Paul bids farewell to the elders at Ephesus. Paul begins by reminding them of his word and deed among them as their pastor. He served with humility and taught all peoples, in all places…the central truth of the Gospel: repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Next week Chris will conclude this passage with Paul’s warnings to the Ephesian elders.

Chris’ long lost books…As Chris packs up his library, there are a few gaps on his shelves in his study, as well as the small office upstairs. He is so glad that his books are vacationing in other places. However, if you happen to have any of his tomes, would you be so kind as to help them find their way back home?
VBS Director(s) Needed. Each summer Cornerstone hosts a very well attended Vacation Bible School (VBS). This is a great way for our covenant children to hear the truths of the Gospel and for children in the neighborhood or friends of our children to be exposed to the Gospel and possibly join in attending Cornerstone regularly. We are looking for 1-3 people to direct the VBS. Please contact Ben Sinnard if you are interested in leading. Thank you!
