A blessing for the school year ahead.

Sunday, September 13 | During the 10:15 AM Holy Eucharist

As a new school year gets underway, bring your backpack—and yourself—to St. Stephen’s for our annual Backpack Blessing!

During the 10:15 AM service, we’ll offer a special blessing for students, educators, and school staff. Bring your backpack, work bag, lesson plans, tablet—or even that favorite pencil—as together we ask God’s blessing on the year ahead.

All ages and stages of learning are welcome, and no registration is needed. Simply bring your bag and join us!

And stay after the service! The morning continues at 11:15 AM with A Journey Through St. Stephen’s: Fall Ministries Fair. Explore the many ways to connect, learn, serve, and grow at St. Stephen’s—with plenty of fun along the way for kids and adults alike.

Come as you are. Wiggles are welcome. Friends and neighbors are always invited.
