Ebenezer means "stone of help" Samuel took a stone and sat it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer saying, "Thus far the LORD has helped us." 1 Samuel 7:12 It was a constant reminder to the nation of Israel that God had protected them and led them to victory, a visual reminder of that truth! This is a beautiful church nestled between two beautiful trees on our way to Manhattan.
