St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church

St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Cohasset describes itself as an inclusive, Christ-centered community committed to exploring the intersection of faith and everyday life. Worship includes Sunday services and a midweek service of healing and Holy Eucharist, and the church celebrates baptisms, weddings and funerals. Music is part of parish life, and the church has its own carillon, a set of tower bells played as a musical instrument.

Formation programs run for every age, from children’s programs and confirmation to a high school youth group, adult Bible study and a fall book study. Outreach includes a Soup for Hospice effort, a soup-and-sandwich lunch in the parish hall and outreach meetings with groups such as Launch. The building stays busy during the week, with the parish hall also hosting community activities such as an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting and Seashore Gourmet.
