Cornerstones

Cornerstones at Fourth is a community of individuals 50+ years of age. Our goal is to provide opportunities to meet new friends and old for fellowship, dinner, and thought-provoking programs. We feature speakers on topics ranging from Arts and Culture to Current Events and including Science and Technology, Religion, Social Justice Issues, and Community Affairs.

Schedule and Location

We meet on the first Fridays of eight months of the year: February, April, May, June, and September- December. The events begin at 5:30 with time for fellowship; we offer dinner at 6:00, and our speakers begin at 6:30. Our meetings are held at the Gratz Center in either the Borwell Dining Room or Anderson Hall.

All Are Welcome

Cornerstones events are open to Fourth Church members and non-members. Although our target audience is individuals 50+years of age, we welcome adults of all age groups to our events.

Two-Tiered Registration

The charge for our events is $30 for dinner and speaker and $10 for Speaker Only. The fee covers meals and speaker expenses. Links to registration appear in the Sunday Bulletin, the periodic Cornerstones announcements, as well as in the weekly News@Fourth newsletter.
