What is Cornerstone?
 
Cornerstone is a 26-hour experience which provides you with the opportunity to reflect, renew and strengthen your faith while meeting other men in our Christian community.  The weekend is hosted at our parish center by parishioners who have experienced the gift of past Cornerstone weekends.
 

Cornerstone . . .

  • provides an outstanding opportunity to meet and interact with other men of the parish,
  • in a welcoming, non-judgemental environment and,
  • allows for the opportunity to step out of the hustle of daily life to relax, pause and reflect

 

What You Can Expect

 

There is no mystery to the Men's Cornerstone weekend.  It's simply a gathering of ordinary men sharing stories and life's experiences.

 

The weekend is facilitated by a team who are passing along the gift of Cornerstone which they have previously experienced.  During the weekend in a very casual atmosphere, some of these men will give a short talk followed by discussion at your table.  You may share in the discussion as much or as little as you choose, or not at all, if that is your preference.

 

There will be a number of opportunities on the weekend to examine your relationship with God, your family and others in your life.  Most of all, it is an opportunity to step out of our daily routine to think about those things that matter to you most, in an atmosphere that lends itself to reflection and contemplation.

Who Comes on Cornerstone?

  • Anyone looking to "jump-start" their sense of belonging in the parish community.
  • Those looking to take time out for themselves and reflect.
  • Men who have been away from the Church for awhile and are curious about re-connecting.
  • Those looking to meet and interact with other men in our Christian community.
  • Those who simply need some time to stop and think
  • Ordinary Men Like You!
