10) ADOPT A MISSION FAMILY
Partners in Mission is a program at Cornerstone in which
three or four families in the congregation join together in
adopting one of our missionary families (the Bosworths in
Alaska; the Boydstons in Guam; the Haworths in Japan; and
the Reeds in Spain.) We gather on a monthly basis to pray
for and encourage our adopted family as well as to learn
about their new culture and then share with our
congregation about them and their needs. Contact the
Dockters with any questions and sign up to Adopt a Mission
Family in the church foyer.
