When you hear the name Ebenezer, generally you think of an old miserly man who was visited and changed by three Spirits on Christmas Eve. However, the word Ebenezer actually comes from an ancient, biblical, Jewish tradition of placing stones as a marker to remember the victories they won in battle. Whenever someone would walk by those stones, they would know that an important event happened there, and that God helped them through that trial.

If you drove down Pearl Street on February 9th, you would have seen quite a spectacle. On one side of the road, 40 people stood with glasses of sparkling cider in hand, looking toward the sky and cheering with tears in their eyes. Across the street, the final beam of the Carriage House, signed by many who were involved in getting the structure to where it is today, was being hoisted into the air by a crane. Majestically perched atop the beam were an evergreen tree and an American flag.
