Welcome

Thank you for visiting the Cornerstone web site. We hope you find the information you want here. If not, please give us a ring, send an e-mail to information@cornerstonemk.org.uk, or call in.

The Church of Christ the Cornerstone is set right in the heart of Milton Keynes, the last and largest of the English New Towns. The church building was opened in 1992 as the first ecumenical city centre church in the United Kingdom. It is home to a vibrant and dynamic Christian community which brings together folk from the Anglican, Baptist, Catholic, Methodist and United Reformed traditions in a wide variety of styles of worship, ministry and service.

Vision

Our vision is to provide a place in Central Milton Keynes where, 7 days a week, people can:

	discover and grow together in Christian faith
	experience God's love
	be challenged to live that love
