The Reconciliation Team at The Church at Stone River invites you to join us for our next Open Table conversation on Thursday, May 21
featuring author Mark Tenhundfeld, whose work explores Alabama’s complicated history of segregation, civil rights, and the ongoing struggle toward justice and reconciliation.

We invite participants to bring a dish to share for our community meal at 6:00 PM before we settle in for an evening of listening, learning, conversation, and reconciliation together.

Mark Tenhundfeld is a native of Mobile, Alabama and a former lawyer and teacher. After obtaining a degree in political science from Yale and a law degree from Vanderbilt, Mark practiced law for twenty-six years in Mobile and Washington, DC before switching careers to teach government and economics at his old high school.

During his teaching career, Mark learned just how little he knew about Alabama’s history. To help others avoid the same fate, he created a course on famous freedom rights cases that started in Alabama. That course eventually grew into his book, State of Segregation: America’s Freedom Rights Struggles as Told by Alabama, recently published by the University of Alabama Press.

Mark and his wife, Dr. Lynda Tenhundfeld, retired in 2023 and moved to Huntsville, Alabama, to be near their two sons, Nathan and Daniel.

This Open Table conversation reflects the Social Principles of The United Methodist Church, calling us not to avoid difficult truths, but to engage them honestly as we pursue beloved community through truth-telling, reconciliation, healing, justice, and courageous conversation.

ALL ARE WELCOME AT THE TABLE

Haven Teens: Safe. Seen. Supported.

Wholistic Center 1st and 3rd Mondays

5:00 - 5:45pm 6-8th grade
5:45 - 6:30pm 9-12th grade

Beginning May 4

Haven Teens is a space just for teens—a place where you can show up exactly as you are and not feel judged. Life can get overwhelming sometimes, and you don’t have to deal with it alone.
At Haven, we talk about real stuff—stress, anxiety, friendships, family, hard seasons, and everything in between. It’s a peer-led group where you can share if you want, listen if you need, and know you’re not the only one feeling what you’re feeling.
This is a space to be heard, to feel understood, and to find people who get it. No pressure, no pretending—just real connection, support, and encouragement.
You belong here. 🤍

Have You Ever?
• Wanted to talk to God but didn't know how?
• Wondered how to be still enough to listen to God?
• Wanted a release from the constant noise and business of everyday life?
• Thought God doesn't know you personally?
• Experienced a silent, peaceful connection to God?
• Wanted to share this holy experience with others?

James 4:8 "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you."

Maybe all you need to do is show up, one simple act at a time, knowing He meets you right where you are.

DENIM DAY, April 29th is an opportunity to raise awareness and stand with survivors to dispel destructive myths surrounding sexual violence. We wear our jeans and state clearly that what a person was wearing at the time they were assaulted was not an invitation for violence.

Denim Day originated in Italy as an act of protest against the Supreme Court for overturning a conviction, citing their belief that the survivor's “tight jeans” made her complicit in the attack.

Since 1999, Peace over Violence, denimday.org, has used Denim Day to bring awareness to victim blaming and the destructive myths that surround sexual violence.
Join us in wearing denim on Wednesday, April 29!

Wear jeans with a purpose, support survivors, and educate yourself about sexual assault.

Maundy Thursday Service
April 2 at 6pm
Message by Beth Noblit

During this service we will have an opportunity to participate in confession and pardon, proclamation of the Word, the Lord's Supper, and the stripping of the church. The ancient practice of stripping the altar and sanctuary following communion is a vivid way of showing the desolation and abandonment of the long night in Gethsemane and what followed.

Tonight’s Stations of the Cross service was so moving. Thankful for so many who got out of their comfort zones to share their creativity and thoughtfulness. Just beautiful.
