St. Stephen the First Martyr is called to be transformed into the Body of Christ - bearing hope and healing to our world. As ordinary time is underway, we remember Jesus' words "Peace be with you...as the Father sent me, I am sending you" (John 20:21). Led by the Holy Spirit, rooted in our faith, and following His example, we are called to give, to evangelize, and to serve. As the United States commemorates the 250*h anniversary of our nation in 2026, we invite you to join our parish family in a special effort to bring hope, healing and peace to our community. With that spirit, our parish hopes to complete more than 250 Good Works by Independence Day. We have provided some good works and service opportunities for adults and familes, to which you are warmly invited. Please click on the button below to view. You are also encouraged to think creatively and help develop additional ways to serve. Many already service our parish and community, and these count towards our 250 Good Works so please record them! Together, this is a meaningful opportunity to grow in faith and compassion as individuals, as families and as a parish community. After you have completed your good work(s), individually or as a group:
