Prayer for hurricane victims
God of creation, we lift to you all who were gravely impacted by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton. Help those who are struggling and bless rescue and relief efforts. Give strength, courage, and hope for this day and the days to come. May our gifts of money, blood, goods, and, in days to come, our time and energy, help to restore the communities that have been devastated. Amen.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Recently members of our congregation received a text message claiming to be from Rev. Melinda and asking urgently for gift cards. The text is not from Melinda.
Please know that as a policy, Cornerstone will never email or text for urgent funds or gifts (including gift cards).
If you receive any suspicious e-mails, calls, or texts from Cornerstone staff, leadership, or volunteers – please report it as junk, block the sender, and contact the church office at 919-303-9200.
Please help fill the Little Red Wagon!
Cornerstone regularly drops off food at the Western Wake Crisis Ministry. The little red wagon used for donations, sits in the atrium. WWCM has requested jelly, cereal, body soap, laundry detergent, dish soap, and paper goods (paper towels, Kleenex, and toilet paper). Your donations make a big impact! Last year, WWCM helped over 5,300 neighbors with food and financial assistance, distributing over 425,000 lbs of food and keeping 1, 669 families securely housed. Bravo!
Stewardship 2025
Thank you to all who have already submitted your pledge cards for the coming year. If you have not, please prayerfully discern what you are able to give. Remember, this is a good-faith estimate. You may not be able to meet your pledge or perhaps you’ll surpass it. Who knows what 2024 will hold! But, your pledge allows Session to better budget for the coming year. Can we increase mission gifts? Can we offer raises? Can we subsidize a youth summer trip? Remember, God loves a cheerful giver!
Stitch Together
Stitch together meets the first, third, and fifth Fridays of each month from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. Come join us as we knit & crochet items for Wake Med. Contact the church office.
