Cornerstone United Methodist Church sees as its primary mission the spreading of the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in this community. Inherent in this is obedience to the Great Commission that we, as Christians, “go into the world” and “make disciples” of all. Therefore, we seek to reach out to men and women, boys and girls, and receive them as they are; invite them into a relationship with God; strengthen them in faith; and send them out to live as disciples of Jesus Christ. Consequently, this church seeks to provide a place of communal worship, study and fellowship for all those who come within its doors, while, at the same time, seeking as Christ taught, to reach beyond its physical confines to serve the lost, the lonely, the searching, and the suffering within this community and the world. All programs and ministries of this church shall reflect, ultimately, attention to this total mission. The Congregation of Cornerstone United Methodist Church is made up of children, youth, and adults from throughout the City of Jonesboro and surrounding area. The ability to draw from throughout the community is a critical facet of the life of this church, and it shall be a goal of this church to cultivate this ability to attract members from throughout the city without regard to particular neighborhood of residence or economic, racial or ethnic background. Worship and ministries shall be planned and executed with this in mind.
