New to SAint Stephens?

First off, we really admire you! It takes courage to walk into a new church or maybe into a church for the first time. The prayers may be different, the people may be different, and the hymns may be different.  Even the message that God loves you no matter what and you are welcome at the Lord's table no matter what may be different. Please know we welcome you with open arms. We also welcome your questions. As you get to know us, please feel free to join in any of the activities or volunteer opportunities you hear about in church or read about in the bulletin or our newsletter "The Interpreter".

Sunday Services

You can expect to find people in worship wearing suits and Sunday dresses, as well as people wearing T-shirts, shorts, and flipflops.  We come to worship with the hope of hearing something new in God's holy scriptures, the message, prayers, hymns, and the children's chatter. We expect sometimes to be comforted and sometimes to be challenged. At its best, our worship does both. We leave worship refreshed and renewed and with something to think about for the week ahead. 

Messy Church

When: Every Second Sunday (Unless Otherwise Noted) 

Where: Fellowship Hall

Time: 4 PM - 6 PM


Does traditional church not speak to you? Then maybe Messy Church is a better way for you to connect. 


What is Messy Church? 

Messy Church is an alternative, immersive worship experience. Each month we explore a different scripture and theme through art, movement, crafts, and other activities. All generations are welcome to explore their faith together. Towards the end of our time we enjoy a meal together just like Jesus and his disciples.
