Cornerstone Launches the “Christendom in New Hampshire” Map
Cornerstone is proud to announce the launch of NHChurches.com — an interactive map of more than 400 churches across the Granite State, from the Seacoast to the North Country.
You can explore in an immersive 3D view of New Hampshire’s topography or switch to a clean flat style. Search by church name, jump to any town, or browse by tradition — Catholic, Baptist, Wesleyan, Reformed, Anglican, charismatic, and every other kind of Nicene Christian tradition in New Hampshire. Click any pin to see a church’s address, website, contact information, and a one-click directions link.
Every church on the map has been verified by Cornerstone as a Christian church — one that affirms the foundational doctrines of the historic Christian faith. Churches that also have a documented record of civic engagement are marked as “Certified Civically Engaged.”
Over 25 years of advocacy in New Hampshire, Cornerstone has collected extensive data on churches across the state. We are making some of that data available for the first time — to encourage, unify, and strengthen the body of Christ in New Hampshire, and to help local churches find and coordinate with one another.
If your church is missing or needs a correction, contact us here.
New Hampshire is full of faithful churches. Now you can see them all in one place.
After Tuesday: Our Mission Has Not Changed
Tuesday’s results were not what we prayed for or worked toward. Many courageous candidates who share our commitment to life, family, and religious liberty were caught up in a broader political shift — and we know many of you share our disappointment.
To every candidate who stepped forward: thank you. Running for office requires real sacrifice — long days away from family, public scrutiny, and personal cost. Whether you won or lost, your courage did not go unnoticed. And to everyone who knocked doors, made calls, gave financially, and prayed faithfully — your labor was not wasted.
Now the polls are closed. The campaign money will dry up, the hoopla will fade, and many of the outside groups who descended on New Hampshire will pack their bags and move on.
But Cornerstone is still here. As Shannon McGinley, Cornerstone’s Executive Director, put it:
“We will be here doing the hard work, facing the challenges ahead, and continuing the mission we have been called to carry out. Regardless of who controls the House, the Senate, the Executive Council, or even the Governor’s office, there will still be families to defend, churches to equip, legislators to educate, relationships to build, and battles worth fighting.”
Cornerstone is first and foremost a Christian advocacy organization — not an arm of any party or political movement. Our allegiance is to the timeless truths of our Christian faith and the dignity of every human person. We will continue standing alongside churches and families whose rights are challenged, equipping citizens to make their voices heard, and building relationships with legislators who are willing to stand for what is right.
As St. Paul wrote: “Be firm, steadfast, always fully devoted to the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” When the new Legislature is sworn in this December, Cornerstone will be at the State House from day one — testifying, educating new legislators, holding leaders accountable, and keeping you informed.
This work requires a strong and sustained foundation. If you are able to make a financial contribution, your support will help Cornerstone remain an independent, steadfast Christian voice in Concord and throughout New Hampshire.
A Silver Lining: Win Local in 2027
Tuesday’s results strip away any illusions about Concord. With a supermajority in the House, a strong Democratic majority in the Senate, and unanimous control of the Executive Council, the next two years will be difficult in the State House. But we find that clarity itself to be an opportunity.
For years, New Hampshire’s best conservative talent has been absorbed by state politics — leaving school boards and town councils vulnerable to progressives. That changes now.
Spring 2027 local elections are the opportunity. The obstacle isn’t voters — Republicans already win seats on school boards across the state. The problem is that most of those board members are weak. They fold under institutional pressure, defer to progressive administrators, and govern no differently than those on the other side do.
The solution is recruiting the right people — tenacious, high-agency conservatives who won’t be afraid to govern. With the talent Tuesday just freed up from Concord, we finally have the means to do it.
January registration opens the door. If you’re ready to step up — or know someone who is — start by checking the NH Secretary of State’s election calendar for important dates, and look to your school district’s website for specific candidate registration requirements. For governance resources and training, the School District Governance Association is an excellent alternative to the NHSBA. More information — including how Cornerstone can help — is forthcoming.
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling… The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.”
— Psalm 46:1–3, 11 (ESV)
