Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.


Matthew 25:40

Outreach Committee Mission Statement

We who worship at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church purposefully strive to be the “hands and feet” of Jesus Christ on this earth. We contribute with our talents, time, and treasure, as we are able.


The Outreach Committee meets to recommend to the vestry the allocation of funds as well as the general and specific direction of our outreach projects. 


The committee recommends allocation of the money received through fund raisers, at the Thrift Shop, and from individual contributions

throughout the year according to the following formula:

  • Diocesan and International Support 30%
  • Local Community Support 70%


The Clergy and Vestry encourage the congregation to become actively engaged in outreach as they are able, for

                   “It is in giving that we receive.” – St. Francis of Assisi
