How to get here

St. Stephen's Episcopal Church is located at 2206 North Cole Road in Boise. We have a large parking lot on the corner of Cole and El Caballo, with entrances off both roads. When you arrive, you'll see two entrances into the building -- one for the Church and one for the Offices. On a Sunday, feel free to use either entrance!

Sunday Worship

Our worship services are at 8:00am and 10:30am on Sunday mornings. 8:00am is a mostly quiet, spoken service while 10:30am features much more music and our choir during the program year.

St. Stephen's is an Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Idaho. You can expect our worship to follow a set liturgy with variable readings and hymns. Every service at St. Stephen's will have readings from scripture, prayers from the Book of Common Prayer, a sermon from our rector, and Holy Communion.

As you enter the sanctuary, you'll find a bulletin for the service with everything you'll need for worship (including announcements and a weekly calendar). And, following each service, we hope you'll join us for a cup of coffee and conversation -- we'd love to get to know you and hear your story!

What else happens on Sunday mornings?

There's usually a lot happening at St. Stephen's on a Sunday morning! We have coffee hour and fellowship together following each worship service (usually around 9:00am and 11:45am). Book studies and Sunday Forums are in the Davis Common Room at 9:30am. Children and youth participate in worship as acolytes, musicians, or process to our Episcopals! Sunday School.
