Cornerstone Bible Church is a ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ to the greater Atlanta area. Our mission as part of the universal body of Christ is to glorify God by making disciples of Jesus Christ at home and abroad. We do this as a local assembly by equipping members to find undiscipled people, to fold them into God’s flock, to feed them to maturity, and to forward them into the mission.

Hymns and Choruses Missions Conference Please mark your calendars and plan to attend CBC's 2015 World Missions Conference on the weekend of February 20-22. Our keynote speaker this year is Alan Goddard with CRU. If you are looking for a place to serve, perhaps you would like one of these opportunities: Nursery, Event set-up, Event coordinators. See page three of this bulletin for the Conference schedule. Contact: Jim Sawtelle— 678778-6851 or [email protected] Tenebrae Service Our annual Tenebrae: a Service of Darkening will be held Good Friday evening, April 3, at 7 PM. Rehearsals are underway at 4:15 for hand bell ringers and 5:30 for the choir, in the choir room. For those of you not familiar with this service, it is very dark and poignant as we are reminded of the events leading up to the crucifixion of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The service includes communion and the final events of Good Friday as recorded in Scripture. This year we will be reprising "Night of Remembrance", an original script written by Karen Hutto originally presented here in 2005. The format uses an Old and New Testament reader, with Scriptures detailing prophecy and fulfillment. Also, there are "first person" accounts of the time from individuals such as Peter, Mary, Judas, etc. We urge you to invite friends and family to come and hear this marvelous story of our Lord's suffering and death on the cross for the salvation of the world. If you have questions about your participation, please contact Sandra Clements at [email protected]. Soli Deo Gloria!

Keeping up with Doug & Cheryl Doug and Cheryl's daughter Carissa has created a CaringBridge account for them where you may find journal entries about Doug's medical progress and treatments. There is also a way to make comments, or a tribute to Doug, as well. To quote CaringBridge: "CaringBridge is all about connecting people on a health journey to family and friends who care about them: http:// www.caringbridge.org Check it out! God's love… Could we with ink the ocean fill, were the whole sky of parchment made; were every stalk on earth a quill and every man a scribe by trade; to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry; nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretch’d from sky to sky. —Meir Ben Isaac Nehorai (adapted modern version) Almighty Father, Strong to Save Almighty Father, strong to save, Whose arm hath bound the restless wave, Who bidd’st the mighty ocean deep Its own appointed limits keep: O hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril on the sea. 2. O Christ, the Lord of hill and plain O’er which our traffic runs amain By mountain pass or valley low; Wherever, Lord, thy brethren go, Protect them by Thy guarding hand From every peril on the land. 3. O Spirit, whom the Father sent To spread abroad the firmament; O Wind of heaven, by Thy might Save all who dare the eagle’s flight, And keep them by Thy watchful care From every peril in the air. 4. O Trinity of love and power, Our brethren shield in danger’s hour; From rock and tempest, fire and foe, Protect them wheresoe’er they go; Thus evermore shall rise to Thee Glad praise from air and land and sea. Lead Me to Calvary King of my life I crown Thee now, Thine shall the glory be; Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow, Lead me to Calvary. Refrain: Lest I forget Gethsemene; Lest I forget Thine agony; lest I forget Thy love for me, lead me to Calvary. 2. Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid, Tenderly mourned and wept; Angels in robes of light arrayed Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept. 3. Let me like Mary, through the gloom, Come with a gift to Thee; Show to me now the empty tomb, Lead me to Calvary. After Communion 4. May I be willing, Lord, to bear Daily my cross for Thee! Even Thy cup of grief to share, Thou hast borne all for me. Hallelujah, What a Savior! “Man of Sorrows!” what a name For the Son of God, who came Ruined sinners to reclaim! Hallelujah, what a Savior! 2. Bearing shame and scoffing rude, In my place condemned He stood— Sealed my pardon with His blood: Hallelujah, what a Savior! 2015 CBC CBC Missions Conference Keynote Speaker: Senior Pastor . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Thank God for the time of family togetherness for them right now! Please remember the following special missions requests taken from our monthly prayer guide. Numbers refer to days of the month. 8. Please pray for Cheryl McIntosh and the Bibleless People Project. Pray that the last languages of the world would receive the Scriptures in whatever form they need it — written or oral. Dare to ask God for big things! Ask Him to provide every person in the world with His Word ”just as He has already provided it for us” written and in the heart language! Pray that the integrity of God’s Word would be maintained as it is translated. Pray for quality translations that speak meaningfully to the hearts of Bibleless people. 9. Pray for Mission India. Pray for founder John DeVries who suffered a TIA a little over a week ago. Pray for his healing and that he would not have another one. “In India, many Adult Literacy Class students are halfway through their year of classes. Father, we pray that these men and women will stay motivated to finish the year and that their hearts are opened to the Gospel through the Bible-based lessons,” from the India Intercessor. 10. Pray for Barbara Goodgame and PCLC. She has moved out of the classroom and into supervising the instructors. Our new Parkview CLC instructor's name is Brian Burchik. Brian is both teaching the 2 CLC classes at Cornerstone and the writing #Live Fully curriculum/class that the students are taking. Pray for Brian to quickly make good relationships with the students and be able to help guide them in their knowledge of Jesus and salvation/sanctification. Pray for God to send more students to our classes. 11. Please pray for Dick and Betty Kay. Dick sent a quick note to thank us for our prayers and support that continue to sustain them in the will of God. He’s hoping in the near future to be able to share the direction of ministry the Lord seems to be leading them into. Pray for wisdom and good health as they continue with their work. Pray for Bud and Lynda to finish their house soon. Pray for their financial situation. 12. Please pray for Tony Pursell and the Elders as they meet tonight to continue discussion on Chuck's succession plan, our continued growth in the Children's ministry, and current and future building needs. Pray for wisdom in seeking God's will. Praise God that He continues to bless CBC financially in a difficult economy thru the faithfulness of our congregation. To God be the glory! 13. Please pray for Pastor Peter and the Good News Club at Camp Creek Elementary. This is a new outreach we started at CBC with some other churches in the area. The Good News Club is associated with Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) whose goal is to share the gospel and disciple kids in our school. A typical club will have a snack time, a Bible time, a small group time, and then a worship time. Our club has about 25 kids attending on average every Friday after school. We have a wonderful crew of helpers from our church that take time out of their day to share the Word of God. Please pray that the children would see their need for Christ Jesus our Savior and trust in Him and that those who confess Christ would grow in their faith. 14. Pray for Boyden and Lois Donmoyer. Pray they can get their health insurance to cooperate for the scheduling for Boyden's back surgery. Lois is doing GREAT!!! Pray for their overall health and safety as they continue to serve us in the different capacities. Thank God for this lovely and dedicated couple. Pure love for Jesus Jesus has many who love His heavenly kingdom, but few who bear His cross. He has many who desire consolation, but few who care for trial. He finds many to share His table, but few to take part in His fasting. All desire to be happy with Him; few wish to suffer anything for Him. Many follow Him to the breaking of bread, but few to the drinking of the chalice of His passion. Many revere His miracles; few approach the shame of the cross. Many love Him as long as they encounter no hardship; many praise and bless Him as long as they receive some comfort from Him. … Those, on the contrary, who serve Jesus for His own sake and not for any comfort of their own, bless Him in all trial and anguish of heart as well as in the bliss of consolation.… What power there is in pure love for Jesus — love that is free from all self-interest and self-love! —Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ Lilburn Co-op Office supplies are always needed at the Co-op: copier paper, thank-you cards, stamps are examples that can be used.
