Every Friday there will be a service of Morning Prayer using Zoom. Please contact the Parish Office for details.
Why not join us online for this 30-minute short service? We use the 'Daily Prayer' service from the Church of England. Participants can choose whether to just listen to the service, remaining on mute and without their camera turned on, or you can join in with reading parts of the service if you're happy to do so.

This is a group which started recently at St Stephen’s which aims to provide a space for social interaction and craft sessions for people in the parish to combat loneliness and isolation. Come along and make new friends. It is free to attend but donations will be welcome. The group will meet term time only.

The Bishop of St Albans' gardens will be open for people to come and see the summer display. Those who saw the snowdrops earlier in the year will have seen the potential that the garden had for the summer and will be delighted at the change a different season brings. The garden will be open regardless of the weather.
The two acres of garden is an oasis in central St Albans and visitors frequently comment on the fact that they did not know the garden was here or how extensive it is.
Entrance is £5 per person (children free) and dogs on leads are welcome. All money raised is donated to the Beds and Herts Historic Churches Trust.
