Stone Haven Church: Freedom Sunday

2012-02-22T05:19:01Z

Sunday, February 26 is Freedom Sunday. Please be in prayer along with Christians across our country, to seek God's direction as to how you can help end slavery around the world. The Free Methodist Church is seizing the challenge to combat child trafficking in India. More children in India are trafficked than anywhere in the world. We will take an offering this Sunday to support this worthy project.

I want to also, encourage everyone to make this current series "Discover The God You Are Looking For" a high priority. This coming Sunday we will be answering the question "Does God Exist." You see, what you believe about creation determines how you view yourself and life. I will present both sides of the debate so you can decide what is true. Hope you all will be able to attend.

Blessings!!!

Pastor Larry

Stone Haven Church: We need your help to spread the word about Rachel's Reward at 7pm tonight!

2011-11-29T06:01:44Z

We need to get the word out about the Christmas play NOW (SNOW is coming tomorrow)! Many of your friends from church that attend Breaking Free are volunteering to get the flyers distributed on Tuesday at 7pm and they would love to have your help. They are looking to pair up so no one has to work alone.

We will be targeting locations with a counter/cash register, like take out resturants (pizza places, chinnese, etc.), coffee houses, hair places, service places (Bell Tire).

When you walk in look for a pile of info/news papers/fliers - ask if you can also leave something. Look for a community bullietin board and put up a poster (example Starbucks by the cream and sugar, hardware stores)

This is really easy, I did one when I got pizza. I just asked the guy at the counter if I could leave a stack (about 10) on the counter by the cash register. He said “Sure.” If you’re lucky they might even ask about the play.

So, can you help? Please contact Debbie Griffith ( charlieandmissy@cs.com ) and let her know you are available.
