The Parish Life ministry is devoted to bringing St. Stephen's together through celebration and fellowship.

Every Monday morning at 7:00 AM, a group of men meet for a light breakfast, sometimes heavier conversation, and always a fulfilling bible study. This ministry for men and boys has service as its primary focus. The Brotherhood has supported an African seminarian for three years by supplying his tuition and making a gift of vestments with which he could begin his ministry. The group presently supports an orphan in Uganda named Ruth. The men have also prepared meals for various groups that have met at St. Stephen's. The group meets in the auditorium at St. Stephen's, where there is always room for newcomers. Bibles are provided. Some men who work may leave by 8:00 o'clock while others stay until 8:45 or so. It is a great way to start the week and share with fellow Christian men.

The clothes closets are open from 9:00 AM to Noon on Wednesdays, and from 5:30 to 7:00 PM on Thursdays.

Music has always played an important part in the life of St. Stephens. The list of past ministers of music is almost as long and prestigious as the list of rectors. We are host to many concerts and recitals throughout the year. Our choristers and minister of music participate in numerous musical events throughout Northeast Pennsylvania and beyond.

Volunteers serve as receptionist as the Church Office in the morning Monday through Friday and Tuesday afternoons. These people are the front lines to welcome individuals to our buildings and offer Christian hospitality.
