Saint Stephen's Episcopal Church

About this church

Saint Stephen's Episcopal Church in Vestavia Hills, Alabama, holds four Sunday services, all centered on Holy Eucharist. A spoken Rite II service begins at 7:45 a.m., followed by Rite II services at 9 a.m. and 11:15 a.m., and a Celtic service with Holy Eucharist at 5 p.m. that is followed by a community supper in the parish hall. The 9 a.m. service is livestreamed, and Morning Prayer is held Monday through Friday at 8:30 a.m. Summer Sunday schedules can differ, so confirm times on the website.

Children's Chapel serves 4K through second grade during the 9 and 11:15 services, and a nursery cares for babies from six weeks to age four. Youth in grades seven through twelve have Sunday School and a Sunday evening Episcopal Youth Community with dinner, plus midweek small groups. Adults can join fellowship groups organized by life stage, including a group for those in their twenties and thirties, one for busy parents, and one for those in midlife. The parish also lists recovery groups, a labyrinth and memorial garden, a preschool, and outreach such as Laundry Love. Worship roles include acolytes, lectors, and Eucharistic ministers, and new people can start from the website's page for newcomers.
