Our Mission
#ForMetroEast exists to serve the communities of the Metro East of St. Louis, to unite perspectives, and to be an ally for all people. We are FOR you. Too often in our polarized culture, people are known by what they’re AGAINST - against liberals or conservatives, the 1% or the poor, the LGBTQ community or the church, millennials or boomers. You name it, someone’s against it. We, on the other hand, want to be known by what (and who) we are FOR.
We are FOR the Metro East.
Our next #ForMetroEast serve day information will be here soon!

Helps Ministry
The goal of this ministry is to help take care of physical needs throughout our congregation. These needs could range from small home maintenance or improvements to car repairs, and everything in between. You can share your skills and talents to help those who need a helping hand.
On the fourth Saturday of each month, those who are willing to help meet some of these needs will gather at Cornerstone's Shiloh Campus at 7 am to talk through the jobs, pray, and then head out to get the work done.
