Our mission is to be a loving and inclusive community bringing people to unity with God and each other in Christ through relationship, prayer, worship and service. We’re called to love our neighbors as ourselves and to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to all people as we work, pray and give for the fulfillment of God's realm. St. Stephen’s is the only Episcopal Church in the entire Santa Clarita Valley and offers a safe place for people of all ages, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, and religious backgrounds.
We’re known as a community that’s grounded by tradition, striving for justice for all people and growing in our understanding of faith. We welcome all people, whoever they are and wherever they are in their spiritual journey. St. Stephen's sponsors and participates in fellowship and service projects within the parish, in our local community and across the globe.
At the core of our existence is a commitment to our baptismal vows to “seek and serve Christ in all persons” to “strive for justice and peace among all people” and to “respect the dignity of every human being”. We welcome with open arms people of all ages, races, ethnicities, economic status, sexual and gender identities. This is a safe and sacred space for all in the community and that certainly includes you!
Our belief system is rooted firmly in a thoughtful combination of scripture, tradition and reason. Keeping these in balance helps us work together to proclaim God's unconditional love for all people as we navigate the complexities of life and contend with the inevitable questions that arise on a dynamic journey of faith.
