     St. Stephen's, located in northeast Wichita, is committed to membership growth and program development for spiritual nurture, renewal, and outreach to those in need. 
     As a church community entering a new era of ministry, we celebrate our Episcopal Church identity and rich, distinguished history of our past work and service in Wichita.  At the same time, we feel that God is calling us into a New Life in Christ and that we have been blessed with numerous resources to be used in service to God's Mission.
     The gift for which we are most thankful is our friendship, our caring and joy in being together as the people of God. 
     It is, for us, "the gift that keeps on giving". ​
