Youth Teams Return

God's work in Rosebud...
  • Escape 22 took 18 students to the Rosebud Reservation with a goal of each student making one long lasting contact with a Rosebud teenager.
  • 28 Rosebud teenagers are connected! They will be discipled via email and Facebook on a longterm basis, and followed up personally when Cornerstone again travels to Rosebud.
  • This is a vital ministry at a critical time in their lives - the average age that children begin to consume alcohol on the reservation is 11 years old. Pray for God's work in these 28.
  • Westwind also sent a team that shared at a rehab center in Rosebud. One of the men on the Westwind team, thinking he had come to help build with a hammer in hand, was used by God to instill hope at the rehab center as he shared his own story of God's deliverance from alcohol and drugs. Hope is a precious commodity at Rosebud. Pray that the God of all Hope will invade their lives.

180 Student Life Campers...

  • 50 junior high students from Cornerstone went to the Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri to grow in their walk with God.
  • the camp speaker, an Iranian Christian, shared on the cost of following Christ, and what it means to walk in authenticity and unity as believers.
  • 9 students gave their lives to Christ!
  • pray that the students will continue to live out the reality of their faith in authenticity and unity for His glory.
