OUTREACH
Outreach is the "UP" part of Cornerstone's Rhythm (learn more at About). Jesus really does change everything and He asks us to “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.” The goal of “out” is to create natural relationships with people and tell them how Christ has changed us.
GET INVOLVED
OUTREACH MINSITRY
• Every Monday from 9am - Noon
Cornerstone Church's weekly (except holidays) community food pantry in Watertown, SD is helping to feed hundreds of families in our community each month. We meet both their practical needs and more importantly, engage them with the GOSPEL. This ministry is a tangible way to show how Jesus Changes Everything.
• Throughout The Year
Cornerstone has a close relationship with the East-Central Court Appointed Special Advocate Program. This organization seeks to promote and protect the best interests of abused and neglected children.

Royal Family KIDS Camp is a week-long overnight summer camp for children ages 7-11 who have been or currently are in foster care. Our church comes along-side the Sioux Empire chapter who serve children in Southeast South Dakota in Minnehaha and Lincoln Counties. (Cornerstone is exploring what it might look like to have a camp for Northeast South Dakota children.)
• 4th Monday of Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct
In partnership with Feeding South Dakota, Cornerstone hosts a quarterly food giveaway. Feeding South Dakota is the state's largest hunger-relief organization, with a mission to end hunger in South Dakota. Their vision is a state where no one person's health, well-being, or potential is hindered by the availability of nutritious food.
Our volunteers help with food distribition, hospitality, traffic flow, registration, and more.
• Friday Before Valentines Day
Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs, ages 14 and older. We are blessed to be a part of this growing worldwide movement through the local church where thousands of people with special needs will be celebrated, given the royal treatment, and reminded of God’s love for them!

COMING IN 2027
Alpha is a series of sessions that explore the foundations of the Christian faith in an honest and non-judgmental environment. Sessions typically begin with food and connection, followed by a talk and open discussion. Best of all, we provide Alpha at no cost.
