Committing Resources

Giving to St. Stephen's

By attending St. Stephen's, you may get a vision that profoundly shaped all of Jesus’ teaching and ministry: the restoration of creation and the return to Eden, in which respect for creation and a sense of connectedness with every other person and thing, and embracing justice and honesty and compassion, are all of a piece. Still, transforming this discernment into behavior seldom provides enough food, enough warmth and shelter, and enough hospitality and generosity to fill in the gaps. To acknowledge what Jesus has taught us through giving, please consider a commitment to St. Stephen's.

Designated Funding

The parish also offers particular areas where donating resources can be devoted. Such possibilities include the following:

• Discretionary Fund: a resource for providing immediate assistance to individuals and families in crisis.
• Good Shepherd Society: St Stephen's legacy society.
• Vesture/Paraments Fund: for purchasing vestments and special liturgical items.

Finally, the Let There Be Light Commemorative Window Campaign was conceived for the replacement and restoration of the church building's many stained glass windows. For more information about this project, as well as any updates, please click here.

Regardless of the reasons for their establishment, sustaining each fund through donations helps to ensure the parish's ministry and presence in the long run.
