Welcome to Cornerstone Shepherds!  We are so excited to introduce this program.  Our vision is for every person in the Cornerstone Family to have a Shepherd to guide, guard, and care for them.  We see this as a high calling and have chosen you for a reason!


We also know the idea of shepherding a group of in the walk with Jesus can be intimidating.  So, we have put together a course style program to walk to through the role of a shepherd, the core values that shape our church family as a whole, and how-tos providing you with practical steps you can take to become an excellent shepherd.  We have made you a binder including fill-in-the-blanks and homework assignments.  Have that ready when you start the videos below.


We are so grateful you here and growing!  We hope you feel encouraged, built-up, appreciated, and cared for.
