Summary

At Cornerstone Church, I have served in many capacities over my 26 years here. While I have lead most every program, activity or trip, the common thread in each of these roles is serving people. Ultimately, ministry is people-centric. Whether it is leading, mentoring, teaching, counseling or just listening, I am simply here to serve my congregation and community.
