Cornerstone Summer Missions Program
One of the highlights each summer is the Cornerstone Summer Missions Program. In many churches, a “summer mission project” is synonymous with “teen mission trip.” At Cornerstone, our missions projects are multi-generational, including young teens to those over fifty-five. In fact, most trips have as many adults participating as teens. Some years, the adults even outnumber the teens. This is an opportunity for all members of Cornerstone to experience the body of Christ in a cross-cultural setting. Locations vary by year, but past trips have included Belgorod, Ukraine; the Cherokee Indian Reservation in North Carolina; the Menominee Indian Reservation in northern Wisconsin; Fairmont, West Virginia; and Ciudad Victoria, Mexico. Missions projects are open to all Cornerstone members, eighth grade and older. For more information or photos from past trips, follow the link at the bottom of the page.
In addition to varied ages of the participants, Cornerstone mission projects are also unique in that they involve a wide variety of work. Vacation Bible School, construction, music seminars, children in worship seminars, self-defense seminars, teen fellowship times, medical work, church small groups, painting, cleaning, and concerts are just a few of the tasks in which past Cornerstone missions teams have participated. Tasks are chosen based on the skill of the team members. Have a skill? Consider using it as part of a summer mission project.
