BREAKFAST IS SERVED THIS SUNDAY! To kick off our fall Sunday school quarter, some of the excellent chefs from our body will treat us to breakfast during the Bible class hour (9:30 a.m.) this Sunday, and there will be information available at that time about the new classes and small groups that will be starting up this fall.
YOUTH BANANA SPLIT BLOW-OUT: If you’re in grades 6-12, or have a child who is, make plans to join us at the church on Sunday, Sept. 12, at 6 p.m. The youth leaders are planning a fun (and informational) event to unveil the plans for the upcoming year. We’ll also enjoy some friendly parent vs. teen competition, as well as a make-your-own banana split bar. So come on out, enjoy some ice cream, and find out what cool things the youth will be doing this year. Questions? See Virginia DeVenney or Heath England.
BETH MOORE SIMULCAST: Attention, Ladies! On Saturday, September 18th, we’re planning to head down to First Baptist Church of Clinton for a Beth Moore simulcast. These events are always refreshing and encouraging as Beth shares from her heart what the Lord is teaching her. It will run from 8:30 a.m.—4:00 p.m., and the cost is $25. We will go out for lunch together during the 90-minute mid-day break. Contact Janelle Vignery (668-2435) if you are interested in getting away for this day of fellowship and teaching.
CORNERSTONE CONNECT: If you are a new to Cornerstone, we invite you to take a closer look at our church by attending “Cornerstone Connect” on Sunday, September 12th at 9:30 a.m. (during the Bible class time.) This informal discussion is a chance for you to learn more about Cornerstone’s vision and values, and also about the opportunities available to you here at the church. The group will meet in Pastor Tom’s office. Hope to see you there!
FROZEN SHOWER – SHHHH! Dr. Martha Schroeder, the chiropractor with whom Sarah Sharp practices, has invited us to participate in a “Frozen Shower” for Justin and Sarah, who last week welcomed baby Raymond Dean into their family. Instead of traditional baby shower items, Dr. Martha is asking us to bless the Sharp family with quick and simple meals. To join in this shower, just prepare a meal that is easily frozen, or gather the ingredients for a favorite meal and include the recipe, and drop it off at Schroeder Chiropractic (207 E. Wall Street). Since Dr. Martha wants this to be a surprise, please take your meal sometime during the next two weeks while Sarah is still on maternity leave. If you have questions, contact Dr. Martha at 816-797-9586.
LADIES’ STUDY ON EPHESIANS: An evening and morning bible study on the book of Ephesians will be available beginning in September. This is a 15-week inductive Bible study using the Life Change series by NavPress. These studies cover individual books of the bible in a verse-by-verse format, incorporating historical insights, word definitions, questions, and application assignments. This particular book will examine truths about the believer’s identity in Christ, and will also look at the topics of unity, submission, and steadfastness. Kelly Scheeberger will be leading the evening study at her home (1105 Glendale Drive in Raymore) starting Thursday, September 9th at 7 p.m. Please call her at 816-318-1724 if you are interested in her study. Suzie Barnett will lead the daytime study at Cornerstone beginning Monday, September 13th, at 10:00 a.m. Suzie can be reached at 816-380-7181 if you would like to participate in this daytime group.
