WELCOME TO
SAINT STEPHEN'S

An Episcopal Parish in the Anglo-Catholic Tradition

S. Stephen’s, a parish in the Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island, proudly stands within the Anglo-Catholic tradition with the Mass or the Eucharist as the center of our common life. We are young and old, rich and poor, single, married, and divorced, straight and gay, confident in our faith and full of questions. What we share is a love of Jesus, and a desire to grow in love of God, neighbor, and self. Please know how welcome you are in this community of faith! ​

WORSHIP WITH US

 Worship is the heartbeat of our parish. Our liturgy is steeped in ancient and timeless traditions, complemented by a vibrant music program at sung masses. We hope to see you at an upcoming service.
