St. Stephen's Episcopal Church

Who we are 

We are followers of the Risen Lord Jesus Christ, who by death destroyed death and brought life and hope to the world.

We strive to make his power known in our own lives and bring his message of salvation to our community.

Why St. Stephen's?

We believe Jesus provides hope for those who are lost, freedom from guilt or shame, and a promise of new and eternal life

We believe that because God loves his creation and seeks to redeem bodies as well as souls, that it is both a blessing and a vital part of our spiritual lives

We believe all people are created to reflect God himself, and that he is our help in times of need

We believe the Christian life is a slow process with up and downs with grace at each step of the journey

We are part of 2000 years of inherited wisdom and practices that draw us into a closer connection with God our creator

Who are we?

We have been in Sherman since 1873, and our current building in downtown Sherman was built in 1909

We are Episcopalians, meaning Christians who were part of the Church of England before the American Revolution. After the war we started calling ourselves the Episcopal Church, because we believe in a Church governed by Bishops. Today we’re also part of a worldwide communion of Churches connected to the Church of England called the Anglican Communion.

We are deeply involved in our community and invite you to join us as we follow Jesus to proclaim his Gospel over sin and death to Sherman, Grayson County, and the world
