    Hi Sondra they actually make glue specific for masonry (stone) just make sure the stone is really clean before gluing

    Clean the rock and scuff the area you want to mount the plaque for better adhesion. Use a construction adhesive like Power Grab, run a bead around the edge of the plaque and in the middle in either an "x" or "s" pattern. Press plaque onto the rock and press firmly. If needed, put additional adhesive to form a seal that prevents water from getting between the plaque and the rock. You might want to cover from the elements for several days until it is completely dry. I forget the time frame but it is a while.
