CHILDREN & YOUTH

A place to grow, belong, and serve at every age.

From the nursery to high school graduation, St. Stephen’s is a whole-life community for kids and families. We’ve got programming for every stage and the kind of community that sticks.

We have two services each Sunday – a contemporary service at 9:00 am with weekly communion. At 11:00 am, we have a traditional service with a children’s message and communion on the first Sunday of each month.

We’ll have nursery for our youngest guests, Sunday school for kids ages 5–18, and Sunday evening youth group for our teens (grades 7–12).

SUNDAY MORNINGS

Something for every kid, every Sunday

Children and youth are fully part of our worship community. They are always welcome in the sanctuary during Sunday services, or they can enjoy our kid-specific programs. Here’s where everyone belongs on Sunday mornings.

Faith with your hands, not just your Sundays

At St. Stephen’s, kids don’t just learn about serving others, they do it. During the school year, our monthly service programs put faith into action starting in 1st grade. Teens do service projects throughout the year, including a special summer mission trip to North Carolina, where they volunteer with the Harvest of Hope.
