I'm New Here

 

Throughout this site you will find many ways to connect with us in prayer, song, justice work, and learning at our church, our school or our community center.

 

Welcome to
St. Stephen’s

 

Thank you for your curiosity in checking us out. Clearly there is movement going on for you, and perhaps you are new to Houston and are looking for a way to meet people in the flesh & not just virtually. Or maybe movement is going on in you. You may have experienced a loss of a job, a death, a love; you may be coming out in your sexuality, recovering from religious abuse, or re-engaging your spirituality and remain skeptical. You may be responding to a hunger in your heart or a pang of imagination. St. Stephen’s is filled with folks just like you.

St. Stephen’s is a member of the Episcopal Church, which has a legacy of inclusion that aspires to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human being; women and men serve as bishops, priests, and deacons in our church. To learn more about what the Episcopal Church believes, click here.

We offer worship services on Sundays at 8:30 & 10:30 a.m. in-person and online.
