Welcome to Cornerstone Community Church
We are an ordinary group of people who are being Rescued by the Grace of God, being Restored in the Joy of
finding life in Him and being Released to Love God, ourselves and others because of the great news of Jesus Christ.
If you’re visiting with us this morning we invite you to
sit back, relax and allow God to meet you. We are
an intergenerational family of imperfect people relying
on God’s grace to love Him and others with His love.
We are currently in the process of searching for a new
senior pastor but our life and mission continues to
thrive. The length of the worship service is generally an
hour and fifteen minutes which includes contemporary
music, traditional hymns, prayer, scripture-reading
and a message. Please join us in singing or feel free
to just observe and take it all in (please silence your
cell phone). You will notice that the newsletter you’re
holding has a perforated Connect Card. Please fill it
out as everyone will be invited to place their card in the
offering plate towards the end of the service. A small
gift is available for you as you exit the inside sanctuary
doors (west entrance).
Getting Your Bearings
First things first; the bathrooms are in the Atrium accessed down the steps through the front of the Sanctuary.
If you have an infant or small child, there is a “cry room” in the back of the Sanctuary where you can still see
and hear the service. The nursery (0-3 years) is also available. Children (potty-trained) are dismissed in the
middle of the service for age-appropriate teaching in the Children’s Chapel (downstairs from Atrium). Join
us from 9:40am-10:40am each Sunday morning in the Celebration Center for teaching for adults (Sunday
school is offered for children and youth). Please visit the Welcome Center in the Atrium to meet some of our
friendly hosts and to find out more about the church. As always, you can find us online at www.csgreeley.org.
We are members of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church (epc.org).
All Church Connect
Take the Connect with you as a reminder to pray during the week. Talk to God as you read the items listed.
Praise Him for the joys. Bring the mentioned people and events before His throne of grace.

she is with our Lord and Savior. I thank all of you for the friendship,
support and prayers you have given our family during this difficult
time. - Les Wilkinson, Leasa Magnuson, Jeff Wilkinson
