Living Stones

Living stones are friends who have been involved at the Mountain in a significant way over the course of their lifetime. They have all contributed through their time, talent or treasure. We’ve held three dedication and honoring celebrations – in 2025, 2022 and 2019. The colorful, handcrafted tiles that bear the names of our living stones are located at our labyrinth entranceways.
