(WMC-TV) - In New York protesters continue to demonstrate against a proposed
mosque near the site of the September 11th attacks. This protest comes
days after a Nashville Mosque site was vandalized. But here in the
Mid-South there's a different sentiment. A Cordova church congregation
is welcoming a new Islamic Center.</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN

sign said it all, "Heartsong Church welcomes Memphis Islamic Center to the
neighborhood."</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN

sign, within three days people from Memphis Islamic Center contacted us and
were overwhelmed with emotion that we would be so welcoming."</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Steve Stone, pastor
of Heartsong Church, said when he heard about plans for the multimillion
dollar Memphis Islamic Center Complex being built near his church, he knew he
had to react.</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">"I don't know a lot
about Islam and I only know one fellow who is a Muslim," said Pastor
Stone. "So I knew it was going to be a learning process for me, but we
follow Jesus and he tells us to love our neighbors."</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Stone said he hopes
that by putting out a welcome mat for Muslims, it will send a strong message
to those who may have associated Christians with being anti-Islam.</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">"People that
associate Christians with folks that are afraid of or don't like Muslims, I
can't judge those people that are Christian. I believe that to take the
name of Christ and do hateful things is a real insult."</SPAN></P>

<P class=ecxMsoNormal><SPAN

Stone told Action News 5 that the Heartsong Church congregation is taking its
new relationship with members of the Memphis Islamic Center one step
further.</SPAN></P>
