Special Announcements
PROMISELAND AND CHILDREN’S CHURCH: This Sunday, September 12th, Promiseland and Children’s Church will be starting up again with a couple of changes that we want you to be aware of. We will be running these two programs in the same way that the Children’s Summer Sunday School was run this summer:
- Both Promiseland and Children’s Church will run for the entire service rather than having the kids dismissed from the service as we have done in the past.
- We will continue the check-in procedure that we used this summer when you drop-off and pick-up your child.
Based on the good feedback we received this summer, we feel continuing with this same format will enable our ministry to your children to be very effective. The only other difference is that Promiseland will be for preschool and kindergarten-age children, and Children’s Church will now include 1st through 5th graders. As in the past, Promiseland will take place in West 2 classroom, and Children’s Church will be in West 1. If you have questions about the children’s program, feel free to contact the church office (380-2422) or talk with Bryan Gilbert, our Children and Youth Shepherd.
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” this 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!
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 tomorrow, 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.

“You will be supremely happy, blest, and fortunate if you desire Jesus and His righteousness,
for if that is your desire, you will be utterly gorged.”
