The Cornerstone is the monthly newsletter of Rolling Hills United Methodist Church (RHUMC) in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. This November 2026 issue is intended for church members and visitors, providing church announcements, worship schedules, and pastoral reflections.
The worship calendar lists Sunday services for November 2026, including All Saints Day on November 1 with Communion, Mission Fiesta Sunday on November 8 with guest speaker Rev. Matthew Sargeant, and the Festival of the Christian Year on November 22. Each service includes scripture readings from Matthew, Joshua, and Ecclesiastes.
Pastor Bonnie Hawk reflects on the scarcity of daylight in November and offers three intentions: cherish the light, find ways to be light, and rest. She encourages readers to appreciate sunlight, contribute cheer during the 12 days of Christmas, and allow themselves rest.
Pastor Sunny writes about gratitude as a daily discipline, sharing personal stories about food and unexpected moments of thankfulness. She promotes the upcoming Advent study and the annual Thanksgiving Dinner on November 21, featuring singer Thalia Moore.
The newsletter welcomes new members Barbara Henshaw, Paul Henshaw, Megan French, and Keum Lee. It includes brief biographies of each, detailing their backgrounds, previous residences, and connections to the church.
