Made by Jesus
 
by Rev. Herm Roney
 What did Jesus do during those silent years
From the age of twelve to twenty-nine?
 
Historians leave us wondering--eighteen years?
 
Did he go to some kind of school?
 
Did he playgames with the local boys?
 
Did he flirt with the village girls?
 
Did he go to the neighborhood synagogue?
 
Did he ever visit Elizabeth, Zachariah and John?
 
Did he get along with the other children of Mary and Joseph?
 
Did he work in the carpenter shop with papa Joe?
 
If so, what did he build? What articles make?
 
Today, somewhere in the holy land
 
There could be found wooden things
 
Bearing the trademark "made by Jesus!"
 
What price tag such an article would bring?
 
Just think about it--invaluable--"Made by Jesus!"
 
Supreme value--utter pricelessness ! Wow!
 
While you're dreaming of what is so valuable,
 
Just ponder this, my friend,
 
Every Christian bears the trademark,
 
"Made by Jesus!"
 
Rev. Herm Roney

 ANGEL FOOD MINISTRIES PARTICIPATION SUSPENDED !
 
 
 
In  LATE 2007, Stone's participation in the Angel Food Ministries program was suspended.  Stone had been an active participant in the program since June of 2004,  Angel Food Ministries provides  top quality groceries and frozen meats and other foods to its members and to the community at large at extraordinarily discounted prices!  These food items are not out of date or "seconds" but rather are top quality foods made available through the bulk purchasing power of the national Angel Food Ministry program.  
 
 Each month, participants may order pre-configued boxes of food and special deals and then pick up their savings at Stone Church!  THERE ARE NO INCOME OR OTHER GUIDELINES TO QUALIFY TO PARTICIPATE IN STONE'S ANGEL FOOD MINISTRY PROGRAM.  Several other Meadville area churches continue to provide this ministry.  Interested persons are invited to work with a participating church until Stone's program can be reactivated.  This month's menu can be found by clicking HERE.  Give it a try! Tell your friends and neighbors!  These deals should not be overlooked!
