The preaching was right on, starting from the Book Of Mark and drawing on gospel content and making application to current life and struggles. It is obvious that Jesus is the bedrock of this congregation. Come and worship!

This church has dirty little secrets they hide from their congregation and the public…read more (Verse 1) In a world turned quiet, the truth unfolds, Whispers of the past, secrets untold. Little girl with tears, behind closed doors, Deacon Nathaniel, look at the scars she wore. (Chorus) Can't hide from the shadows of what you've done, When love is denied, hearts come undone. At the funeral of truth, she stands apart, Barred from her mother's peace, holding a heavy heart. (Verse 2) Memories linger, like echoes of the night, Childhood stolen, in the absence of light. Now she stands strong, with courage and grace, While you hide in the darkness of your fallen place. (Chorus) Can't hide from the shadows of what you've done, When love is denied, hearts come undone. At the funeral of truth, she stands apart, Barred from her mother's peace, holding a heavy heart. (Bridge) Your lies may build walls, but they will fall, In her silence, she hears the angels call. It's a testament of hope, to rise above, Because real love, real love can't be unloved. (Outro) Can't hide from the shadows of what you've done, With every breath, she stands strong as the sun. She hears her mother's voice, guiding her way, In the darkness of night, she'll find the day.

The church, recently renovated, is beautiful and the organ is magnificent (it's worth a visit just…read moreto see the organ and hear the extraordinarily talented organist). It's an older congregation primarily, but the childcare for families is very good, and they are responsive to needs of many groups. Services are friendly and welcoming - visitors are always there because of the proximity to the college and the historic area, and are always welcome. The church holds concerts and a ton of educational programs. The pastoral staff is caring and accessible. If you've relocated and are looking for a church home, or if you're just passing through the area, it's a great place to worship.

Beautiful church that I enjoyed visiting and attending a service on a blustery January day. The…read moreweather kept most of the tourists at bay so I'm sure the Parishioner to Visitor ratio was high. The service was a classical Episcopalian service but without music. Probably because I am an early riser and attended the 8:00am service. For some reason they did not want participants to perform intinction (dipping bread in wine). In this post pandemic world, I don't know if that's for "health" reasons or if it's just a "house rule". Either way, it was novel for me. Definitely a wonderful living historical building that's almost a must visit location. I still remember a PBS woodworking show visiting to see the old carpentry in the building and would have loved to tour the building more on another visit.

I visited several Williamsburg area worship services before I found St. Stephen, which felt like…read morehome during my first visit. I wasn't even a Lutheran (!). During worship, the scripture readings and words of the sermon spoke to my heart, the joy of music touched me, and the sacrament of communion brought me peace. Following the worship service I was warmly greeted and welcomed. St. Stephen helps match folks with opportunities to volunteer their time and talents to help others. From the variety of opportunities, I found something (preparing/delivering meals for the housing insecure) to get involved in right away, as I wanted to begin to help make a difference. Starting with this one ministry, I began meeting others, learning of the community's needs, feeling a part of something larger, being a part of "God's Work. Our Hands." I've now been part of St. Stephen for five-plus years. I love that we are young families with kids, and, we are college students, singles, parents, and active retirees. There are many areas of social injustice that need our attention, our action. God does his "*greatest works through people with grateful, trusting hearts." Let us practice trusting and thanking God continually. *Jesus Calling, Sarah Young
