I am heading into my last week of my fundraiser and I cannot thank each of you for your contributions. I am so excited because with you, we have made a great difference in many lives. Hundreds of people have received food, water, medicine and temporary shelter. Those who were displaced have returned home but what little they had is now gone. Because of your donations, they were given a bags of household foods and vinyl-lined mattresses so that they have a place to lay down on instead of a mud floor. My Mom has posted more pictures on the St. Stephen FB page and website. The pictures will show extreme poverty. Again, thank you for caring and being the hands and feet of Jesus.

Hi, My name is Alex Mendoza, and I am fundraising for the people of Honduras who have been effected by Hurricane Eta. My family does mission work there and many have lost their homes and are without food and water. I cannot do very much but what I can do is grow my beard. So, this month, I declare this to be Nomenbeard. Will you please sponsor me? My mom does not like me growing my beard. She says food gets stuck in it but said she will look at my messy beard because this is a good cause. Any amount will help. Please pray for the people of Honduras and thank you for supporting me. You may send your donations to the St. Stephen church office earmarked for Nomenbeard. You can also see me at Mass! God bless you!

Our sanctuary project begins the first week of November. Daily Masses will move over to the Holy Spirit Center. Weekend Masses will still be held in the church. The project is expected to take 4-6 weeks to complete. If you wish to donate to the purchase of the St. Joseph statue and additional candles for the altar, please note this on your check or envelope for the funds to go towards the Sanctuary Project.

The form is available on the SSCC website on the homepage under Documents & Announcements, or the staff page: https://saintstephencc.org/staff.

The kitchen in the Parish Hall has recently been very thoroughly cleaned and organized. In order to keep it that way in the future a new “Kitchen Clean Up Check List” has been created for everyone to use when they are done using the kitchen. You will find the checklist on the wall by the door to the HSC. In addition, there is a sign up sheet on a clipboard by the check list. Please sign in your group each time you use the kitchen. Thank you in advance for pitching in and helping us keep the kitchen clean and organized for all of our parish events! Click on New Parish Hall Kitchen Use Policy title above for all the details.

Usted encontrará la lista de verificación en la pared junto a la puerta a la HSC. Además, hay un cartel hoja en un portapapeles en la lista de verificación. Inicie sesión en su grupo cada vez que use la cocina. Gracias de antemano por ayudarnos a mantener la cocina limpia y organizada para todos los eventos de nuestra parroquia y lanzamiento!
