St. Stephen's Weekly Touchstone 
     The Ninth Sunday after Pentecost       
July 17, 2016  


 Summer Worship 
 
As we add the finishing touches to our renovated sanctuary, such as installing lighting, replacing the wall monuments and putting furnishings back in place, we continue to worship in the air conditioned comfort of the parish hall. We are utilizing the wonderful portable altar donated to St. Stephen's by Sheila Varughese in honor of her daughters, Olivia and Sophia. The altar was constructed from the wood of a downed tree on the church property, and has been a boon to our parish.  Thank you again to the Varughese family!
