Adopt-A-Neighbor

, Uncategorized

Adopt-A-Neighbor

As we kick off this advent season, we want to demonstrate the love of Christ in Action by having each community “adopt-a-neighbor(s)”. This will be an opportunity for each of our Cornerstone Communities to serve an individual, a family, or an organization during the month of December.

The Church is a people not a place…

The primary channel for Adopt-a-Neighbor will be communities (i.e. the people). Therefore, every community will seek to identify a need within their geographic or relational circles – particularly, among those outside the church. For example, do you have a connection to an immigrant family, a single mom, a real change seller, or a homeless individual that you could adopt in this season? Is there an organization that is meeting needs that you’d like to specifically partner with this month?
Take some time to talk with your community and decide how/where/who you want to serve/give/adopt this month. Focus on making it relational, involving people.
Get creative, be generous, and ask Jesus to give you and your community a vision for incarnating the love of Christ this season.

In Christ we have been given much. By Him and through Him we have much to give.

2nd Annual Turkey Bowl

, City Life


If you’re not busy on Thanksgiving morning, you’re invited (rain or shine!) to participate in DCC’s 2nd Annual Turkey Bowl. We’ll gather at Judkins Park on Thanksgiving Day at 8:00am for festive fall foods, kids games and a friendly game of co-ed flag football for those interested. Basically, this is just a good reason to hang out on Thanksgiving amidst friends, lawn chairs, blankets, shouting fan(s), laughter and good food. Bring a favorite fall breakfast treat or drink to share (hot chocolate, cider, coffee, etc).

Don’t forget to dress warm and spread the word!

Judkins Park | 22nd Ave S & S Norman | Directions here.

Hurricane Sandy Relief

News

As most of you are aware an historic convergence of storms hit the east coast this week causing unprecedented damage and power outages in New Jersey. Shore towns have suffered massive devastation and millions were left without power throughout the garden state. You might ask how we can help? There are several Acts 29 Network Churches (of which DCC is a part of) that were hard hit by the storm, and we not only want to come alongside those churches, but help them serve and minister to those in their area.

Here’s how you can help

Downtown Cornerstone has setup a tax deductible fund and 100% of your donation will go to relief efforts for NY/NJ Acts 29 Network Churches. Give online by clicking this link and selecting “Hurricane Sandy Relief.” All funds to this account will be utilized in serving people and DCC will cover all administrative fees.

Giving has closed at this time, will update soon with the final amount given!
