Andy: Hey everybody, Andy here. I’m here with student leader Eliza. Eliza, why don’t you tell everybody about yourself?

Eliza: Hi, I’m Eliza. I’m a sophomore nursing student, and I’m part of the worship leadership team.

Andy: She just recently joined our leadership, and we’re glad to have her here. How did you find out about Cornerstone?

Eliza: I was at the activities fair my freshman year. I was looking for a campus ministry when I came to college, and I met Josh Hamilton and our very own Savannah Lattanzi. They were really welcoming. Later that night, my roommate Emily and I sat down and decided to come to Cornerstone.

Andy: That’s awesome—we’re glad to have you. So, what would you say Cornerstone has meant to you?

Eliza: Cornerstone has been a very grounding community. It’s been great to meet people, build deeper relationships, and connect with others who share the same values.

Andy: That’s awesome. Lastly, is there anything you’d like to say to my friends and supporters out there?

Eliza: Yes—thank you so much for your consistent support. We really appreciate all that you do.

Andy: Yes, thank you so much. There’s always time to give—just click the link below. Thank you so much, Eliza, and thank you all for your support. Bye!

Andy: Hey everybody, Andy here, and I'm here with Nick, one of our student leaders. So Nick, why don't you tell everybody about yourself?

Nick: I'm a sophomore mechanical engineer, and I'm going to Cornerstone. This will be my second year, and I'm part of the Wednesday night team. We help plan and run our Wednesday night large groups at Cornerstone.

Andy: Yes, which is a lot of work actually. So Nick, how did you find out about Cornerstone?

Nick: When I first started at Pitt, I started coming to Bellefield for Sunday services. The first time I was in attendance, Andy introduced himself to me and said, “You should come check out Cornerstone.” I thought, “Well, I need to see if I have enough time to squeeze all this in.” But with a little more persuasion, I showed up. I've been going ever since because it was a blast.

Andy: Okay, awesome. And we're glad you came. So what would you say Cornerstone has meant to you?

Nick: It's really the thing I look forward to most each week. It's a way I can take a break from all the noise in my busy life. It allows me to refocus on God and my faith. A lot of that is through the strong community at Cornerstone. From day one, I felt very welcomed by all the upperclassmen. They really took me in. I feel like God has used those connections with people at Cornerstone to open me up and allow me to have deep conversations. I feel like that's strengthened my faith a lot.

Andy: That's awesome. And lastly, is there anything you’d like to say to my supporters and friends right now?

Nick: I really just thank Andy for leading me in the direction of Cornerstone. It's opened up a lot of things for me. I've started getting involved in freshman Bible study and discipleship groups because he initially got me introduced to Cornerstone. So thank you for opening that door.

Andy: I appreciate you, Nick. And there's still plenty of time to give—the links will be below or in my bio. Thank you all, and thank you Nick.

Nick: Thank you!

Andy: Bye.

Andy: Hey everybody, Andy here, and I'm here with Josh. So Josh, why don't you tell everybody about yourself?

Josh: My name is Josh. I'm currently a rising senior at Pitt. I'm a nursing student, and fun fact—I am from Las Vegas.

Andy: From Vegas! So Josh, how did you hear about Cornerstone?

Josh: I actually knew nothing about Pitt or Cornerstone until I got here. It was actually our water bottle handout that we have during Welcome Week. I was moving in on campus—it was a hot summer day—and luckily, there were these people handing out water bottles with information about campus ministry.

Andy: That's awesome. Glad you're here! So, what has Cornerstone meant to you?

Josh: I feel like Cornerstone is family, for sure. I grew up in one church back home and saw the same people every week. Coming out here, I was able to find that same kind of community—from my D-groups with Boaz and my roommate Andy, to my AOM (Area of Ministry), and all the friends I have here. It’s just family. We live life together, go through tough times like exams, procrastinate together, and break bread. It's been amazing.

Andy: That's awesome, that's awesome. And lastly, is there anything you'd like to say to my supporters and friends?

Josh: This guy’s pretty cool, so you should support him! And yeah—thank you guys so much for supporting him as you have been, and I hope that support continues.

Andy: Yes, and thank you so much. There’s still plenty of time to give—you can just click on the link below or in my bio. Thank you so much, and thank you, Josh! God bless.

Moore News (June 2025)

Hey everybody, Andy here. Just want to give a quick update on everything going on in Cornerstone, the Moore household, and finances as well.

First, Cornerstone:
Our summer program has begun — what we call Summerstone — where we do a weekly Bible study, which will actually be a podcast study this summer. In it, we’re talking about verses that are usually plucked out of context. It's a great way to learn why we can’t do that — we need the full meaning behind a verse to understand what the author was trying to say to the original audience.

Summer is also a wonderful time to build morale. It's a very chill time to get to know each other a little better, as well as dive into God’s Word.

As far as the Moore household:
There’s a lot going on right now. As you may have seen, I am now officially ordained! I’m now Reverend Andy Moore — but please, just call me Andy. I also have a new title at Bellefield: Assistant Pastor for Campus Ministry.

For those asking, “Am I still with the CCO?” — the answer is yes! I'm still with the CCO. I love college ministry — it's my passion, it’s my gifting — and I can’t really see myself doing anything else. This new role just means I have more responsibility with the church, which I’m glad to help with and serve in however I can.

Also, you may have seen that Benjamin officially graduated from SciTech! We’re so proud of him. He got in front of everybody, said the Pledge of Allegiance — it was just a very cool, very emotional moment for me, as you can imagine, being an emotional person — to see how far he’s come. We’re proud of him and looking forward to what God will do through him and with him at Pitt.

As far as finances:
Last month was a wonderful month — thank you to all who chipped in and gave above and beyond. It's so meaningful to see how God has worked through you, and for us to rely on Him and His provision.

That said, we could always use more help. We need monthly donors. We need one-time donations. So I’m asking: if you already give, would you consider increasing your gift by 10–25%? Or, if you’d prefer to make a one-time donation, that’s great too.

Another way to help is by sharing — share this video, share our needs with your friends or family. Put them in touch with me — I’d love to talk with them about what I do and what God is doing through students.

Thank you so much to those who give and continue to give. I’m praying for you and praying that God blesses you richly this summer.

Thank you so much.

Andy: Hey everybody, Andy here! I'm joined today by student leader Logan. Logan, why don’t you tell everyone a little about yourself?

Logan: Hi, I’m Logan. I’m a rising junior here at the University of Pittsburgh, majoring in Computer Science. I'm originally from the Harrisburg area.

Andy: Awesome! And what’s your role in leadership?

Logan: I’m part of the Wednesday Night team here at Cornerstone. I help plan our large group gatherings, coordinate events, and take care of a lot of the behind-the-scenes logistics that need to get done.

Andy: Yeah, Logan does a ton for our ministry. So how did you first hear about Cornerstone?

Logan: I was actually recommended by a high school friend to get involved with the CCO. He just graduated from university last month and is now a youth pastor. When he was attending Pitt, he told me, “Hey, the CCO is based in Pittsburgh. I really enjoy my group here—you should get involved.” So I went to the activities fair, met Bobbi, and later that day at 5 PM, I met you, Andy. I’ve been involved ever since.

Andy: That’s awesome—we’re really glad to have you here. What would you say Cornerstone has meant to you?

Logan: For me, Cornerstone has been a really refreshing place. Even though a lot of our events are at night—later than I’m usually active—it’s still a time where I feel re-energized. It’s a place where I have real friendships and we can dig into meaningful conversations—about life, the Bible, and even just fun, random debates you never knew you needed to have.

Andy: That’s so great. Is there anything you’d like to say to my supporters?

Logan: Yes—thank you! This community has grown so much because of your support and generosity. If you’re able to continue supporting us, we’d love that. And if you’d ever like to talk or learn more about what we’re doing, I’d be happy to share more.

Andy: Thanks so much, Logan. And thank you all for watching and supporting. There’s still time to give—check out the link below or in my bio. Thanks again, Logan!

Logan: Thank you! 

Andy: God bless.

Moore News (May 2025)

Hey everyone, Andy here. 

I wanted to give you a quick update on what’s been going on lately — with our family, with Cornerstone, and with finances. Normally I save the financial updates for the end, but I’m actually going to start there today because a few important things have come up.

Over the past couple of months, I’ve fallen short in my giving, and last month I was about $1,000 short. When that starts to become a pattern, it raises concern. So, I want to ask for your help in four specific ways:

1. Give – You can give a one-time gift, start giving for the first time, or, if you already give monthly, I’d ask you to consider increasing your donation by 10–25%.

2. Tithe Your Tax Return – Tax returns are coming in, and this is something I’ve encouraged before with success. When your return arrives, I ask that you prayerfully consider tithing a portion of it to support the ministry.

3. Share – Please share the need with friends or family. You can do this verbally or by sharing this video or email. Getting the word out makes a big difference.

4. Pray – Most importantly, pray. I’ve found myself in tight spots before, and God has always come through. So I’m not panicking — I’m trusting God will provide again, as He always has.

Now for some personal updates. This Saturday, the 17th, I’ll be traveling to Cleveland, Ohio to stand before the Presbytery for my final oral examination as part of the ordination process. I’ll be preaching a sermon and answering questions, and I would really appreciate your prayers as I prepare and go through that experience. Lord willing, I’ll pass, and I’ll be sure to keep you updated on how everything goes.

At home, life is moving quickly! Ben is graduating from high school next month and will be heading to Pitt in the fall. Asher is wrapping up his freshman year at Allderdice and really enjoying it. Josh has started 7-on-7 football and is already getting ready for the upcoming football season; he’ll also be visiting colleges this summer, which is hard to believe. And then there’s Emily — the glue that holds everything together. She keeps all of us on track and manages the chaos of four boys with so much grace. Please keep her in your prayers, especially as the pace of life continues to pick up.

Over at Cornerstone, we’re getting ready to kick off our summer program, which we simply call Summerstone. It’s a student-led Bible study — laid-back, relational, and focused on helping students connect with Jesus and with one another. It’s one of our favorite times of the year, and I’d love for you to pray that it’s meaningful and impactful for everyone involved.

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen and support us — whether through giving, praying, or just staying connected. I’m incredibly grateful for each one of you. For those who are already giving or planning to, thank you, and may God bless you richly for your generosity.

Andy: Hey everybody. I am here with student leader Everett. So Everett, why don’t you tell everybody about yourself?

Everett: Hi! I’m a third-year student, and I’m currently a double major in Applied Mathematics and Music Composition.

Andy: Awesome. And how did you find out about Cornerstone?

Everett: It was my freshman year, and both my parents went to Pitt. My mom specifically had gone to Cornerstone, and she said, “If it’s still there, you should check it out.” My brother, Asher, and I were like, “I don’t know… school’s hard. Let’s settle in first.” Eventually, later that semester, she said, “All right, you’re going to go.” And I thought it was really cool. It was a very welcoming environment the first time we went.

Andy: That’s awesome. And thank you, Mama Harrington, for giving us your kids!

Everett: Yeah. Shoutout to Debbie.

Andy: So, what has Cornerstone meant to you?

Everett: The first thing that comes to mind when I think of Cornerstone is community. Like I said—the welcoming environment. I think we’ve done a really good job with invitation and just being a place where people feel like they belong. That’s something that’s really stood out to me and something I’ve seen grow during my time at Cornerstone.

Andy: That’s awesome. We’re so glad to have you in Cornerstone. Is there anything you’d like to say to my supporters, my friends who are watching this?

Everett: Thanks for all that you do. I think it’s really cool that we can continue to be a great organization for others—for outreach and invitation—because of you. So, thank you.

Andy: Well said. There’s still plenty of time to donate. The links will be in my bio and below. And thank you to Everett, and thank you all for watching!
