The Dallas Baptist Ministers Union hosted a special service benefiting Greater Cornerstone Baptist Church on Dec. 9 at New Mount Zion Baptist Church. Baptist churches throughout the City worshipped together and raised funds for renovations for Greater Cornerstone Baptist Church and its childcare center Greater Cornerstone Academy.
“It warms my heart that our sister churches and respected organizations like the Dallas Baptist Ministers Union have come together to assist with rebuilding our church and childcare center,” Dr. David Wilson, Greater Cornerstone’s pastor, and founder shared.
The church was in the path of a tornado that struck North Texas in late October. Their child care center playground was completed destroyed and the sanctuary roof was stripped away.
“We thank God for backing up His Word through the Baptist Ministers Union, ‘Give and it shall be given unto you,'” Dr. Wilson shared.
The local churches were delighted to help.
“We are excited to be a blessing to our neighbor church,” Rev. Tommy Brown, president of the Dallas Baptist Ministers Union and pastor of the host church, New Mount Zion Baptist Church shared. “Pastor Wilson and his congregation have been and will continue to be the cornerstone of our community and we will do all we can to ensure they are in the best position to serve our community.”
Greater Cornerstone Baptist Church was started by a small group of believers with a vision and a prayer. With faith as their only asset, the first organizational meeting took place in the sanctuary of the former First Baptist Church of Hamilton Park on October 30, 1986. This structure would eventually become the permanent church home of the Greater Cornerstone Baptist Church.
Today, Greater Cornerstone has become an integral part of the Hamilton Park and Stults communities and an established vessel amongst Baptist churches in the Metroplex.
