This Week - Oct. 9th thru Oct. 15th

** The new website and email are active and are the new contact locations for all things Cornerstone Fellowship of DeGraff. https://www.cornerstonedegraff.org/ is online but still a work in progress. You are hopefully using the new [email protected] for the church email. 

** There are positions available within the church for you to get involved and belong to this body of believers. I hope that you are prayerfully looking for the ways in which God is seeking for you to grow in your faith, and serve others so that you might have the opportunity to see God at work! I am attaching a more expansive description of the positions available along with what is likely to be expected.

** 1st Wednesday Kids Club has likely run its course. With most of our teachers and helpers not getting any younger, we simply do not feel that we can provide adequate care for our kids. We do encourage you to sign up through the United Way to be a lunch buddy! If they get enough help they will be able to cover 3rd and 2nd graders! You can reach out to Melody Couchman from the Logan County United Way at [email protected]. The program begins October 17th.
