St. Stephen's Episcopal Church is a family centered parish with
an average Sunday attendance of about 120. While our ministry is primarily to families,
about 20% of our congregation are single or widowed. We are a caring and pastoral church
and provide a wide range of activities for education, fellowship, worship and outreach. In
addition St. Stephen's houses a fine nursery school for about 70 children from the
community. |
| The Episcopal Church began in Fairview in 1907 as Trinity Mission. By 1964
population growth in the area warranted expansion, so the Trinity Mission joined a group
of parishioners from St. Paul's Cathedral to form St. Stephen's. The present church was
built at that time, but was expanded by the addition of an educational wing in 1969 and
was remodeled and expanded again in 1997 by the addition of more space for Christian
Education, a library, chapel and remodeled offices and kitchen facilities. St. Stephen's
currently operates on a budget of about $180,000 per year. |

At St Stephen's we regularly
celebrate the sacraments. The Eucharist is celebrated every Sunday at 8 AM
and on alternating Sundays at 10 AM, except during the seasons of Advent
and Lent, when the Eucharist is celebrated each Sunday.
The Sacrament of Holy Baptism is celebrated as needed at the request of
the family desiring the sacrament. |
