Learning about spiritual practices
Interested in building a house for the homeless and affecting poverty on an international scale? A team from StoneBridge is partnering with Hands of Mercy to build a loft house in Ensenada, Mexico. You can help without traveling further than the StoneBridge parking lot. If you can hammer a nail or manage a paintbrush, you’re qualified! Come when you can and leave when you must. We’re also collecting items to give to the family once the house is built. Please visit the Ministry Table on the patio after worship to sign up to contribute to the family’s care package.
