Meet Our Staff

Pastor Sheldon Boyd is the Senior Pastor of Cornerstone Community Church.  He has been our pastor for the past 13 years.  He not only serves the people of Cornerstone, but is actively involved in serving the Chino Community. Sheldon serves on several civic boards as well as serving as Police Chaplin for the Chino Police Department.  Pastor Sheldon each week shares messages from the Bible that are designed to help us all become fully devoted followers of Jesus as we also deal with the issues that are so prevalent in each of our lives.  Pastor Sheldon is also passionate about God's five purposes for our lives, the purposes of Fellowship, Worship, Ministry, Discipleship, and Mission.  We will discover not only purpose for our lives, but greater joy and fulfillment as we endeavour to live out God's purposes for us.

Pastor Mike Shipman and his wife Lyn began attending what is now Cornerstone back in 1980.  In March of 1982, Pastor Mike began serving as the Youth Pastor.  He served at Cornerstone until September 1994, before taking a youth pastor assignment at Santa Ana 1st Church of the Nazarene.  In 1996 he became Student Ministries Pastor at Arlington Ave. Church of the Nazarene  in Riverside, and served there until October of 2003. 

During these 21+ years, pastor Mike has led ministry trips to Mexico, Skid Row, San Francisco, Appalachia, Alaska, Canada and many Native American sites in the U.S.  He also directed many winter camps, Jr. High and High School Summer Camps, led the Anaheim District Ambassadors, and was on the District NYI Council.  He also coached JV football for seven seasons at Don Lugo High School.

From 2003 to 2009, Pastor Mike became Lead Pastor at The Family Church in Rancho Santa Margarita, in south Orange County.  The Family Church was a church plant that had been without an assigned pastor for 18 months.   The Family Church was an exciting venture, and Pastor Mike and the congregation were very involved within the community.  Sadly, due to the current economy, the decision was to not renew the church's lease at the end of the term.

Pastor Mike returned to the Church where he began his ministry in April of 2010.  He is currently serving as part-time interim associate pastor, and working with ministries including teens, small groups and occasionally preaching.  It is great to be back "home" at Cornerstone!

John Upcraft serves as Worship Leader of Cornerstone Community Church of the Nazarene. Having music as a passion since early childhood, he began playing drums at the age of 4.  Learning guitar in Jr High he began to play in bands throughout Southern California.  A graduate of The Institute of Audio and Video Engineering he has worked in both recording studios and in live sound. After coming to Christ at Cornerstone, he began to play on the worship team for several years before receiving the call to lead.  "I believe God gave us music because of it's ability to move and soften one's heart.  Through out the Bible you find music being used to lead God's people and to unite them in praise."  When not working on music you can find John spending time with his wife of 20 years and his 2 children.  John can be contacted at john@cornerstonenaz.org
