About
Community Outreach is the heart of Christ's call to be disciples. Christ calls us to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the lonely and imprisoned, welcome the stranger and love others as we love ourselves. To this end, St. Stephen's continues to grow in our service to the community through our Blessing Boxes, Community Garden, Clothing Closet, Second Saturday lunches, reading with children at Guth Elementary and participating in the many events happening in the Perkasie community.
​​
We continue to add opportunities for service through the church. If you would like to be involved, please contact the church office.
