Saint Stephen Church
West Salem, Ohio
About Our Church:
St. Stephen's has a real advantage in being a relatively small parish of about 300 families. Our cozy size makes it easier for us to know one another and to help one another when needed. Being aware of why we publish this web page leads us to think of why we have a church. Our Mission Statement will sum it all up: "Through Him--With Him--In Him" We recognize Jesus Christ as the source of all life in our parish. We will help each other develop a real and personal relationship with him. We dedicate ourselves to continual renewal of faith through prayer, celebrating the Sacraments, proclaiming and living the Word and fostering a family-centered community. We believe the Holy Spirit is empowering us with the gifts needed to glorify God and serve our neighbor. By providing a parish where love, justice, unity and peace are evident, we hope to strengthen God's influence in the world and gain life internal. We would do well to keep these beautiful words in mind as a common vision of what our parish goals should be. Let's work together for the good of all.
