    Bishop (Pastor) Stoney was a monumental influence on my life as a young teenager, pouring into my life in a crucial period of evolving into a man. May our Heavenly Father bless his family and his memory, in Jesus name.

    Sunday morning, Sunday night, Tuesday night, and Friday night 48 years Bishop Stoney was there very faithfully with the Word of God proclaiming Holiness is demanding. Stoney as well as other true ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ has traveled "Via Dolorosa" and faithfully endured. Therefore we must hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering until we see Jesus. Thaddeus did, so can we with The Help of The Lord. Yours truly, Deacon Roberts (Curley)
