Cornerstone Dinner 2025

The Cornerstone Network is happy to invite you to this year's edition of the Cornerstone Dinner!

Since 2006, the annual Cornerstone Dinner has taken place on the evening of the European Prayer Breakfast occurring annually in the European Parliament. The dinner is an opportunity to meet, hear interesting speakers, network, enjoy music, and discuss what we can learn from the example of Jesus in our personal and professional lives.

Following the theme of this year’s breakfast (James 3:17), we will be exploring how followers of Christ are called to be lovers of peace. Our speakers will explore how we can embrace this calling and how to tap into the heavenly wisdom mentioned in the book of James to achieve this. Through a series of interviews, we will talk with individuals who are promoting peace, be it politically, professionally, or personally, to understand how they are guided by this wisdom.

In these conversations, we will hear practical stories of reconciliation, advocacy, and bridge-building, and consider how biblical principles can shape the way we respond to conflict and division in our communities. The discussion will also invite us to reflect on how peace begins within our own hearts and relationships before it can extend into the wider world. Together, we will be challenged to see peace not only as the absence of conflict, but as the active pursuit of justice, compassion, and understanding.
Stay tuned as we announce details of our programme in the coming weeks and months!
