Come join us at Stone Presbyterian Church in Clinton, NY at our summer worship time of 9:30 a.m. July 5 worship in-person and live streamed on Facebook Live as we celebrate the sixth Sunday after Pentecost with Michelle Dolan preaching.  We will celebrate the sacrament of communion, open to all who wish to partake.  

A View from the Steeple

Stone Church is proud to announce the publication of A View from the Steeple, written by Marjorie (Midge) Bakos, one of the Church’s long-time members.

Midge, a direct descendant of one of the earliest of area settlers, tells how she developed her interest in historical research by assisting the former Stone Church secretary, Peggy Weldon, in fulfilling requests for dates of baptism, marriage etc.  As she recounted, “One particular morning while on such a search, I came upon the name Zebulon Peck who was a deacon in the early church from 1801 to 1808, ten years after the founding of the church in 1791. Oh my! It dawned on me that my grandmother had tried to tell me several times that he was my g-g-g-g-g-g-grandfather from Bristol, CT…. Now the pieces of the puzzle began to fit together and I looked through more material. I had papers and books everywhere….”

The Fair Trade Shop

   Fresh picks for the summer.  Catch the sun, chase the fun!  Summer happiness, one purchase at a time!  Quality that speaks for itself.  Because you deserve the best!

   Whether it is for your home or garden, metal art is universally wonderful!  Haitian metal art is handmade by village artisans and created from recycled metal steel oil drums.  Most importantly, though, it is Fair Trade, so everyone benefits, including you!

  • Our Milagros Metal Hearts are intended to “Lift the Spirit”-in times of celebration, when comfort is needed, or just to put a smile on someone’s face.  Surprise the special people in your life and let them know you have love to share!
  • Made of recycled steel, our Angel Garden Art sculpture will rust over time if it is exposed to the elements.  This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, some people like the look of a weathered patina.
  • It’s easy to hang your Dragon-Celtic-Metal Art sculpture with just a few nails.  Place the first nail within two design elements that are touching or notched.  Then use a second or possibly a third nail, to straighten and secure the piece against the wall.

   These and MANY, MANY MORE uniquely handcrafted gift items from 38 different countries can be found at our FAIR TRADE SHOP, STONE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, 8 SO. PARK ROW, CLINTON.  Our regular hours are 10am to 4pm every Thursday, SECOND SATURDAYS, at the Farmer’s Market on the Village Green every Thursday during the summer and by appointment by calling 315-853-1070.  Purchasing fair trade items ensures artisans and small farmers fair wages and healthy working conditions, providing dignity, sustainable development and hope for marginalized people.  LET US BE YOUR GO-TO GIFT SHOP!  Visit us at https://buildingstonesshoppe.square.site or www.facebook.com/buildingstonesfairtradeshoppe.
