It was an incredible morning at
St. Stephen’s yesterday, September 11, as we celebrated our 60th Anniversary of
the founding of the congregation.
We dedicated the new Mary and
Martha window, which was designed by Gin Templeton and made by Michael Orchard
and Nick Walberg from Michael Orchard Studio.
The house was packed.
Children’s Chapel was buzzing. Backpacks were blessed. We were grateful to
welcome back former Rector, the Rev’d Sandi Holberg, as well as Susan Frear who
served as the first female acolyte in the Diocese. We also welcomed ten new
members to St. Stephen’s today on our second New Member Sunday this year.
It was one of those truly
amazing Sunday mornings when the Spirit, the music, the liturgy, the people,
the potluck, the food and everything else just came together perfectly. I am feeling
very grateful today to be serving such an amazing, vibrant and thriving
congregation
