Our Lay Leaders

The Vestry is the elected lay leadership council of the Church. The Vestry of St. Stephen’s meets monthly to discuss, reflect, and take action on the many important aspects of church life. The Vestry is made up of 12 members of the church, officers, and the Rector. Every year at our annual meeting, we elect a class of 4 new Vestry members, who serves a three-year term.

In the St. Stephen’s Annual Report, you will find information from all the various ministries and committees that serve our parish and our broader community.  If you see something that interests you or sparks your curiosity, please contact the leader of that ministry, or email the church office, to be connected to the appropriate.
