Today in the PC-USA Mission Yearbook

The Mission Yearbook for Prayer and Study is a daily devotional with 365 inspiring mission stories that come from next door and all across the globe. It inspires thousands of Presbyterians daily as they uphold the mission of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in intercessory prayer. The stories in the 2012 Mission Yearbook were gathered around the prayer of Paul for the Colossians, that these faithful brothers and sisters would bear fruit and grow in the knowledge of God (1:10).

Today in the Mission Yearbook: August 14, 2012

PRESBYTERY OF NEW HOPE, NORTH CAROLINA - From the day it chartered in 1998, God has blessed Cornerstone Presbyterian Church (CPC) in Cary. Early blessings included gifts of faith, generosity, perseverance, and love.

Early in 2009, CPC entered a season of rapid growth. The church began to see a harvest for their years of cultivation. In 2009, CPC grew from 151 to 192 members. The next year was a breakout year for this congregation: membership increased to 224 members and average worship attendance increased from 156 in 2009 to more than 180 in 2010. That was the first year Cornerstone did not receive financial assistance from the Presbytery of New Hope.
