Being faithful to the Great Commission of Jesus to make and multiply disciples in every place and people group locally to internationally cost in people, material, and financial resources. First, give yourself for God's use, and then give of your material and financial blessings to spread the gospel of Jesus and increase His kingdom.
Nothing substantial, eternal and life-changing occurs without prayer. Pray intentionally, intensely and consistently for how God would have you to be involved in missions and for the multiplied mission efforts of those who serve.
Cornerstone is a Southern Baptist church affiliated at the local level with the Washington County Baptist Association, at the state level with the Mississippi Baptist Convention, and at the national and international levels with the Southern Baptist Convention.
Washington County Baptist Association consist of eighteen Southern Baptist Churches working in cooperation and with other Bible-believing, Bible-teaching, like-minded churches. Our purpose is the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) given by Jesus Christ, which means we work and serve to get the gospel of Jesus Christ to every resident, to disciple God's people and to extend the Kingdom of God locally. Accomplishing this great purpose provides opportunities to help people meet their basic needs of food, clothing and shelter, prepare and secure employment and manage the difficult and tragic circumstances of life.
In addition, Cornerstone's active Missions Team leads our church's mission efforts locally, nationally and internationally. Seek the Lord for how He would have you participate in missions. Every Christian can pray. Since each gift is vital, nothing is too small or too large. Not every person can be involved in missions on the local, state, national and international levels; however, all of us can be missionaries in our own neighborhoods and where God takes us.
As God leads you in His will, be an instrument of His grace and a minister of reconciliation. Be one of thousands who, as Isaiah, have heard God ask, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" and have answered, "Here am I. Send me" (Is. 6:8-9).
"You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth" (Acts 1:8).
