Reception for Sharon Billetter - February 2023

Click or tap on the photo to enlarge it.

Our beloved Sharon Billetter has entered her second year of Deacon School, and has been assigned to do her training with the people of St. Paul’s, Stockbridge. While we are selfishly saddened by her leaving, we are grateful for her gifts and calling to serve God as a deacon.

Today (February 19) is Sharon’s final day worshipping with us at St. Stephen’s. We hope you’ll join us to send Sharon out with a blessing (and a cup of coffee and perhaps even a piece of cake!). As Sharon continues her journey toward ordination as a Deacon, please uphold her with your prayers.

St. Stephen's Table Thanksgiving Meal - November 2020

On Thursday, November 19, Dan Moon – Coordinator of St. Stephen’s Table – and several volunteers served a sumptuous takeout meal of turkey, potatoes, stuffing, peas and carrots, cranberry sauce, gravy (from scratch, not can or jar), rolls, and homemade pumpkin mini whoopee pies (complements of Pat Tarrant and family). More than 75 meals were distributed. Many thanks to all who prepared, served, and cleaned up.

A special thanks to the Taconic Culinary Team who prepared most of the meal off-site in the midst of switching from hybrid to fully online learning.

(Click or tap on each photo to enlarge it.)

On Saturday, May 9, 26 cars carrying about 40 people, many sporting handmade signs, drove slowly past Edie’s home as she waved from her porch. Drivers deposited cards in her mailbox and honked their best wishes.  Edie will be moving to Las Vegas this weekend. You will be missed!

Church Pew Cushion Cleaning and Repair - May 2020

The Property Committee took advantage of the removal of the pew cushions from the sanctuary to get them deep cleaned. The next step was repairing seams. Claudia Curry and Lois Symonds are seen here stitching up the seams in pew cushions. Please note, masks were worn when moving within the building, they did not face one another and sat 6 feet apart while working. You’ll be sitting pretty when we return to in-person worship.
