These standards are based on scripture
where it is clear. Where it is not
clear, it is based on human attempt to apply scriptural principles considering

followed by anyone who represents The Cornerstone Foundation or participates in
a short-term mission project with Cornerstone.
We ask that these standards be applied, not only on the Cornerstone

Honduras, regardless of where volunteers are, they are likely to be identified
with Cornerstone/APAH/Hospital Loma de Luz), as well as any place in the United
States when one is representing or being identified with The Cornerstone
Foundation.
