In every generation, the people of St. Stephen’s have cared deeply for this church and for one another. They have prayed together, given generously, and tended to this place so that it could serve as a home for worship, learning, and fellowship. Because of their faithfulness, we inherit a thriving parish—one that continues to grow in joy, vitality, and service.
This year, our stewardship campaign invites us to continue that legacy. The 75th anniversary celebration reminded us just how much this community means to so many, and how each generation has offered its best to keep St. Stephen’s strong. Now it is our turn to ensure that this legacy endures.
Our goal for 2025 is to raise $775,000 in pledges. This will allow us to expand our ministry through a ¼-time Associate for Pastoral Care, meeting the growing needs of our members, while also increasing our buildings and grounds budgetso that our campus remains safe, beautiful, and ready to serve the next generation.
In recent years, we’ve made substantial investments in critical repairs—over $500,000 in improvements that have preserved our campus for the future. Yet good stewardship means planning not just for emergencies, but for sustainability. Regular, faithful giving ensures that we can maintain our facilities with care and provide for those who rely on the ministries within them.
Your pledge this year helps us build a budget that reflects both compassion and commitment—a budget that supports people and preserves place. Together, we can keep St. Stephen’s strong, not only for today, but for those who will come after us.
Thank you for your generosity, your faith, and your trust in this community’s future—from generation to generation.
