Sunday, March 29, 2009

Around four years ago, on March 27, 2005, the church where I serve as Founding Pastor, Cornerstone Baptist Church, held our first public worship gathering at Silverlake Elementary School in Pearland, TX. The fact that we are still meeting together on a weekly basis, growing spiritually, winning souls to Christ, and continuing to proclaim the message of Jesus Christ - is nothing short of a miracle! Our four-year anniversary celebration was held during our morning worship service. This is the first year I have literally entrusted the anniversary to a committee of people who undergirded the entire event and simply stood back and let them work. I was pleasantly surprised to see the level of superior excellence, attention to detail, apparant teamwork, harmony and excitement amongst our members. This past year we have seen both decline in membership numbers but a growth in both maturity and consistent giving. Pastor Z.T. Davis of Houston, TX shared a powerful word from the Lord from John 5:1-9 with the message entitled, 'This is Your Moment'. What a timely, substantive and practical exposition of scripture it was! As Cornerstone moves into her fourth year of ministry, I solicit your prayers as we strive to do the will of our Father. Happy Birthday Cornerstone!!!

Congratulations Pastor Pullam on the anniversary of the Cornerstone Church. I know first hand many of the sacrifices and struggles of trying to put forth and maintain ministry. Not all grasp the vision and few are willing to completely commit their time, talent AND/OR treasure. Thank God for the faithful. May you continue to be a beacon before those who are lost. Continue to "preach a little" and they will come.

Remain Encouraged!

Happy Anniversary to both Cornerstone and my brother Pastor Kraig Pullam. I am amazed when God gives his servant a charge and a vision to start a brand new ministry from the ground up and that servant stays the course no matter the difficulties.

I commend you and the Cornerstone Congregation for your faithfulness to the call of the Lord on your lives, and I believe that eyes have not seen, neither have ears heard, nor has it entered into the hearts of men, what you shall become if you trust in Jesus.
