Hiroshima Tree planting

For many years we have had a cherry tree in the churchyard at St Stephen's donated and planted by St Albans CND in memory of Hiroshima. A few years ago, this tree died, but we are delighted that we’ve got permission to plant another one, again being donated by St Albans CND. It would be lovely if church members could come along to join in with the short ‘planting ceremony’ followed by refreshments in the hall. All are welcome.

St Stephen

Welcome to one of the three Pilgrim Churches in the city! It was founded in the 10th century, and has been a focus for Christian worship ever since. Its hall normally hosts meetings, groups, a lunch club for the elderly, dance groups, organisations for young people and much more. There is also a lively team of bell-ringers, who welcome newcomers.

Our main Sunday service is live, but some services are also recorded and available to follow online. Details are shown on the Services and Events page.
