History

     Cornerstone Baptist Church was organized in October of 1994.  We are active members of the Surry Baptist Association.  As a small group of Christian believers, we met in several different locations including: a bank, tire store, and several community buildings.  With our faith and trust in the Lord we began construction of a new church building.  The dream of a permanent place to worship became a reality of June 2, 1996, as we held services for the first time in our new building.  The Lord continued to bless us and in February of 2000, we started construction on our new sanctuary and fellowship hall.  In December of 2000, we held Sunday services in the new sanctuary.

     Cornerstone Baptist is still a small church where people love the Lord.  We hold regular Sunday morning service with Sunday School (classes for all ages) beginning at 9:45 AM, and worship at 11:00 AM.  We have Wednesday night Bible Study for adults and mission groups for the children including:  Team Kids Discipleship, and Junior Youth Choir practice.  Choir practice for adults follows the Bible study.  All activities start at 7:00 PM on Wednesday.  The Jr. High and High school age groups meet on Sunday afternoon at 6:00 PM.  We have an active "Women on Missions" group and are involved in several local, state, and national mission projects as well as supporting Southern Baptist Missionaries serving in foreign lands.

     If you are looking for a small church filled with love for our Christian brothers and sisters as well as a love for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, come visit with us at Cornerstone.
