“And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.” Heb 10:24-25

Downtown Cornerstone is committed to forming communities that are deeply rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ. By His grace, we now have nine established Cornerstone Communities! As a church, we aren’t just interested in holding events, but for people to connect, share life and form communities that are deeply rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

We want to plant communities in every neighborhood and sector by which people are able to eat together, pray together, shop together, laugh together, and study the Bible together (i.e. share life). These are communities that build up the church by encouraging people to faith in Jesus Christ and build up the city through deeds of justice and mercy. Our weekly community gatherings are intended to serve as the building blocks to community, but are not the end goal. If you call Downtown Cornerstone home and have not yet participated in community, we encourage you to check out a weekly community gathering in your neighborhood:

  • Belltown Community/Tuesday/6:30/3rd Ave & Lenora St
  • Capitol Hill Community/Thursday/6:30/Broadway & Mercer
  • Commerical Core Community/Thursday/5:45/Western Ave & Seneca St
  • First Hill Community/Tuesday/6:30/University & Minor
  • Phinney Ridge Community/Thursday/6:30/N 62nd St & Dayton Ave N
  • Queen Anne Community/Thursday/6:30/Taylor Ave N & Ward St
  • Uptown QA Community/Tuesday/6:30/2nd Ave N & Aloha St
  • Wallingford Community/Tuesday/6:30/N 50th St & Meridian Ave N
  • West Seattle Community/Tuesday/6:30/High Point Drive SW & 29th Ave SW

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AT A CORNERSTONE COMMUNITY GATHERING?

These are all communities of diverse imperfect people that are committed to living out the implications of the gospel in every sphere of life. Every community gathers at least once per week, while sharing life throughout the week. These gatherings include the sharing of a meal, prayer, Bible study, and good conversation. Each community looks different because each is made of different people with different interests, schedules, and passions.

HOW CAN I JOIN A COMMUNITY?

HOW CAN I BE PRAYING FOR OUR COMMUNITIES?

You can be praying specifically for the following:

  • more and more people would come to know Jesus Christ personally
  • grace would overflow in our relationships with neighbors, coworkers, and fellow believers.
  • increased God-reliance and humility
  • for God to raise up leaders to lead and plant more communities

It’s our hope and prayer that everyone who calls Downtown Cornerstone home will belong to a Jesus glorifying, bible believing, gospel centered community.
