Tracy Stone

Evangelist Tracy Stone is known for his heart of worship, anointing and burning desire to see souls saved. His very heartbeat is to see people who are lost and hurting delivered through the power of Jesus Christ.

Tracy Stone was born October 23, 1971. He was raised along with five siblings in Middlesex, NC by his parents Mr. and Mrs. J. Harold Stone. Going to church was the number one focus of his family. Everything was centered around church. At the tender age of 5 Tracy received Jesus Christ. Those around Tracy saw that there was an unusual anointing on his life. It was then Tracy's grandfather, the late Reverend Isaac Hinton, sensed that Tracy was Called of God and just before Rev. Hinton went to be with the Lord, he prayed a blessing over Tracy's life, and he passed his "Mantle of Anointing" on to Tracy. At age 8, he received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, and at age 15 Tracy started to evangelize, carrying this torch that was passed onto him to our lost and dying world.

Throughout his life and ministry Tracy knew the importance of having a spiritual covering. Therefore, Tracy has surrounded himself with spiritual mothers and fathers. A strong healing anointing rests upon Tracy Stone. Many have witnessed and experienced miracles that have taken place through this servant of God.�In 2001, Tracy pioneered and founded a church in Georgia. In 2002, Tracy returned to full-time evangelism and traveled the world until October 2006. Tracy is currently Pastor at Praise Chapel in Houston TX. Pastor Stone and Praise Chapel have been a huge blessing to God's Pit Crew.
