Women's Ministries
Welcome to the Cornerstone Women's Ministry! Based on such Scriptures as Titus 2, 1 Timothy 3 and Proverbs 31, it is our deep desire to encourage you on your journey to becoming a woman of noble characer and Christ-like attributes.
We believe that takes place on both the personal and corporate levels as you reach out and spend time with other women pursuing the same goal. To that end, we offer a variety of activities and service opportunities where you can CONNECT with God and other women in our CCBC family, GROW in your relationship with the Lord, SERVE God with your time, talents, and treasures, and GO share the good news of Jesus Christ. From Bible Study to Ladies' Night Out, we hope you find a place where you can be nourished and prepared to join us in our mission which is "to develop prayerful, Spirit-led women who, in submission to the Lord, glorify God by providing for the spirutal and physical needs of their family, church and community."
We look forward to getting to know you.
Love in Christ,
Elvie Burckart
Womens' Ministry Team Leader
