Our Sundays at Wollaton at already changing, as the School's building programme gets underway. Cornerstone Wed, 18 Apr 2012 11:35:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#24 A few months ago I was sat in my car on Castle Marina bridge, facing the former MFI showroom, waiting for the traffic lights to turn green. Cornerstone Fri, 11 Nov 2011 10:37:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#23 Halloween - what a tricky subject! Speaking as a parent who desires to be a Christ-honouring voice to my children - I hate it! I didn't realise quite how difficult Halloween was to navigate as a Christian parent until my children hit the age of being invited to Halloween parties by well meaning non-Christian friends.

Cornerstone Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:36:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#20 The Summer season is a great time for many of our young people to go on Christian holidays and missions. It is such an encouragement to hear stories of how God has worked in significant ways through these events, here is just one of those stories that we hope will be a blessing to you all. Hello my name is Sam Gosrani, a 15 year old from Cornerstone. Cornerstone Fri, 02 Sep 2011 09:59:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#19 It is always encouraging when we receive cards in the office to thank us, as a Church family, for being supportive. We can't publish every single one of these, however, after speaking to Katie, we wanted to share the following to encourage us all that our prayers and support really do make a difference! "This is a note of thanks as I come to the end of my time as a UCCF Staff Worker for all your support over the past three years.

Cornerstone Wed, 13 Jul 2011 15:43:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#17 Cornerstone's seventh Week of Prayer for a building: A centre of worship, teaching and mission. We sometimes think of prayer as a rather static thing but in actual fact prayer is very active. Cornerstone Mon, 13 Jun 2011 08:06:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#16 Our nation has been shaped and defined by the Christian faith for hundreds of years but sadly there has been an erosion of Christian values and a silencing of the Christian voice. Cornerstone Fri, 10 Jun 2011 15:50:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#15 This Sunday, Peter announced details of the forthcoming gift day. You can read the message in full below: "On 19th June we will be having a crucial gift day for the work here at Cornerstone and in particular for the erection of our own building on Castle Boulevard. Cornerstone Wed, 18 May 2011 08:09:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#14 From 25th-27th March a group of 32 students from Cornerstone, along with the Student Team, went away to the Harby Centre in Leicestershire.

I know it's a strange question - but when the temperature outside is minus 7 - it's important! The answer is ';quite a lot' but if you keep moving you don't freeze! Despite inclement weather, our Operation Christmas Child warehouse at the MFI site has been in full operation (mind you I did have to dodge the odd snowball on Saturday). Cornerstone Tue, 30 Nov 2010 10:11:00 http://www.cornerstoneuk.org.uk/resource/blog.php#12 When it's an Operation Christmas Child shoebox! Yes ... it's shoebox time!!!! Cornerstone has been involved in Operation Christmas Child for the last 15 years - in fact I reckon we have sent over 3,000 Cornerstone boxes in that time. It's a simple and wonderful opportunity: to transform an empty shoebox into a gift-filled box which Operation Christmas Child hand-delivers to a child in need, living in real poverty, asking nothing from them in return. There's power in a simple gift - a shoebox demonstrates God's love in a tangible way to millions of children around the world.

The band consisted of four musicians from Cornerstone: Phil Moore on Piano, Kathryn Greenlee on vocals and Rob Radcliffe on Bass, in addition to myself on acoustic.

So what's it all about? What is the apprenticeship? As a fledgling member of the Cornerstone team it immediately struck me to grill Spencer Hampton (Church Manager) on the ins and outs of the apprenticeship scheme. Cornerstone Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:05:00
