Cragsmoor’s historic Stone Church is the spiritual home for an open and affirming community as well as a spiritual space sacred to thousands of people who come from around the world to experience the chapel’s serenity and beauty. If you are looking for a church that will welcome you, if you have ever felt excluded or marginalized in the past, we invite you to join us here. The Stone Church welcomes all seekers. Our motto is, “Open to people, open to God.” As you walk through the beautiful mahogany front door, you will face a stained-glass window based on the words of the prophet Isaiah: “For my house shall be a house of prayer for all peoples” (Isaiah 56:7). On the window are symbols from eight of the world’s major religions, from Christianity and Islam to Buddhism and Native American faiths. Our community comes from many different traditions – including Catholic, Presbyterian, Episcopal, Methodist and Jewish. We are gay and straight, married and single, young and old, and we find common ground in the affirming spirit of this remarkable place.
