Cornerstone is the main reason I'm still in San Francisco.  There are 4 things I value most about this church body: 1. Multi-Generational Discipleship - When I first moved to SF, I thought I wanted a church that was primarily 20/30s.  But I can't begin to describe the depths of wisdom that I've been blessed to tap into by being part of a multi-generational church.  I've been mentored by my pastors and small group leaders, who have shepherded me through many personal challenges and growth areas.  I've have had the blessing of doing life with friends through varying life stages.  I can confidently say that I'd be an entirely different person without Pastor Terry/Sheryl and Pastor Luis/Jean discipleship. "The glory of the young is their strength; the gray hair of experience is the splendor of the old." (And they don't even have THAT many gray hairs ;)...) 2. Diligence / Excellence - I've invited several friends to church, and they have all commented on the excellence of each service.  The church body puts in great care to make you feel God's love as soon as you walk in the door.  You'll be greeted by our parking team, guided to a seat by our ushering team, invited to seek prayer with our prayer team, refreshed with toast/coffee by our Cornerstone Cafe team, and welcomed to stay connected by our "New Here" team.  Our worship team serves from 7AM to 1PM every Sunday (not including practice time) to bring us into the Lord's presence with their musical talents.  Everything here is done with a standard of excellence - not for men, but for the Lord. "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men." 3. Service - The job of staff is to equip its church members to serve.  Humans were created to serve, and we feel most fulfilled when we're living into that purpose.  Every year when I look back on the times I felt most fulfilled, I think of the spaces where Cornerstone has encouraged and challenged me to use my gifting and talents to build up the church.  Cornerstone's staff facilitates volunteer fairs, new member classes, and a variety of ministries to help us find places where we can grow into what the Lord has prepared each of us to do. "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." 4. Community - Before Cornerstone, I never considered staying in a city largely for my church community.  But my sisters and brothers at Cornerstone have taught me what true community is made of:  commitment, sacrifice, and perseverance.  Pastor Terry and his family set the tone here with their 60+ year commitment to San Francisco, which they've seen as their mission field since 1953.  Cornerstone small groups and ministry teams are where I've built my strongest friendships in SF, and I continue to be inspired daily by how this community rallies around each other in times of both crisis and celebration. "By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." A cornerstone is a stone that serves as a stable foundation for a building and endures the test of time.  For the past 5 years, Cornerstone has served as this stable foundation for my faith journey.  There's a reason that the church has survived and grown for 60+ years in one of the most "unchurched" cities in the US, and that reason is leadership's rootedness and faith in the Lord. I love this church and am so excited to see what the Lord continues to do in San Francisco through this church body!

This has been my church home ever since I was born. I have been to a couple of other churches through out my life, all great in there own right, but I have found that Cornerstone is where I desire to stay. One of the reasons I have stayed is because of the growth one can experience. As you start to dig into community, you can see that the leadership, both staff and non-staff, desire to see you develop and grow in your faith. There is even so much potential to grow in the church, with many avenues to serve or lead small groups. Churches are run by leaders in the community. I have seen and served alongside many leaders at Cornerstone. I would highly recommend coming by.

I have been a believer for 40 years, and have been to many different Christian churches. I love the enthusiasm, contemporary worship and friendliness of Cornerstone, but most of all I love the fact that Cornerstone is on a mission to fulfill the great commission to reach those who do not yet know the Lord. I also love to see how passionate and well prepared Pastor Terry is in his message. This is a teaching church not a preaching church. The wonderful thing about the word of God is you can read a scripture one day and come back another day and find new meaning. Come check out a service you won't be disappointed
