Other Programming Opportunities

Cornerstone Fellowship
Sundays @ 5 PM

Students in grades 7 through 12 gather in Cornerstone Commons for a time of games, fellowship, worship, a quick message, and small groups. We hope to be able to serve dinner each week as well.

Cornerstone Fellowship Sunday Night Dinner
and/or Adult Leaders

Most Sunday evenings, when Cornerstone Fellowship meets, we will gather together in Cornerstone Commons and start the evening breaking bread together from 5:30 to 6:15 pm for dinner. Each time, dinner is provided by a pair of Cornerstone families.

Please take a moment and sign up to provide dinner to our Cornerstone students and leaders. Most weeks, we have 15 to 25 people that will need to be fed.

You can prepare food or order food from a restaurant, whichever you prefer.

DKB will be at the Starbucks at 131st Street and Hazel Dell Parkway from 5 to 7 PM.  Feel free to join him for conversation, coffee, or just to catch up.  Parents are welcome as well.

Student Internship Opportunities

The Children’s Ministries department at St. Mark’s United Methodist Church in Carmel, Indiana is excited to announce paid internship opportunities for Summer 2023. Interns will get to experience working with children in an environment where Mission is a Way of Life! St. Mark’s UMC is a community of followers of Jesus Christ that strives to WELCOME all people, GROW in knowledge and grace, and SERVE our neighbors, locally and globally. If this is a mission you would like to help carry out, we would love to hear from you!
