St Stephen

We are a biblical church. We get to know God through the Bible, which is uniquely inspired and filled with God's wisdom for modern people; we read it, learn from it and trust its guidance. We especially look to meet Jesus in its pages. We're a church for others. That means we are not just here for ourselves. The church has a mission-to love God fir... st, and then to love and serve others! For 150 years, St. Stephen's has done that in Sewickley, the greater Pittsburgh area, and the world. Our members regularly go on mission trips close to home as well as abroad. We support many missionaries and relief agencies. And we seek to be a good neighbor in our Sewickley community. We are a family church. Like Jesus, we love kids and families. Children are welcome at all our services, but we also provide childcare so moms and dads can focus on the sermon, not their rambunctious little ones. We have a full range of age-appropriate, Bible-based, creative and fun programs for kids during services and our mid-Sunday Education Hour. During the week and throughout the year we feature regular programs and special events for children, students, and parents. We also have a large group of singles among us, who find family here in our small groups and activities. We are an Anglican church. Being an Anglican means some wonderful things. It means you are part of the third largest family of Christians in the world and a part of a neighborhood church. It means we have an ancient past and live in a modern culture. It means we have well developed patterns of worship and the freedom to be flexible and innovative. It means we love the Bible and we love Holy Communion. And it means we are all about the good news ("Gospel" - that's what it means!) of Jesus Christ. It's quite a mix, with a great deal more - and we love it all!Read More
