The planning committee is meeting again tonight, but we are without our youth leader, Chris Law. He went home to his reward and will be greatly missed. He was looking forward to a great youth reunion for the 50th celebration. But that doesn't mean we still cant have a great return of former youth from our church. Have you ever been a part of the church youth group? Do you have special memories or stories to share? Let us know where you are and how your start in youth group has affected your life! What was the youth group name? Who were your leaders? Reach out and let us know!!

Have you ever been a part of Cornerstone over the years? We want to hear from.you!! The church started in the 70s meeting in small groups in people's homes for Bible studies. Our church still has small groups in homes for Bible studies! As long as we have fellowship together to encourage one another and learn more about God, it doesn't matter if it is in a big building or a home. The church building just allows us to reach more people with the gospel.of Christ. We are fully devoted followers reaching others for Christ, from the start and still today! Come join us as we celebrate 50 years of Christian fellowship in Winfield! Let me know if you have pictures from small group fellowship.
