St Stephen's Church is ALIVE & WELL!!!! It is in it's 90th…read moreYear! Reverend Charles Woody (Formerly The Branford Hospice Clergy for over 14 years.) has retired from Hospice to focus his full attention to the building up of the Congregation of St Stephen's. St Stephen's is anxicous to become fully involved in our Town for the betterment of our entire Community. Just last Saturday, September 28, 2013 they held a very successful "Third Sunday Breakfast and Tag Sale". Yes, it was on a Saturday. Many people requested that the tradition continue. St Stephen's also has their Sunday Service air on the television each week. However, they are much more wonderful in person. I suggest that you stop in and just see what it is all about. If you are searching for a place of Worship, St Stephen's may just be the right place for you.

My sister and I have not spoken in over twenty years. She passed away last month. My attempts to…read morecommunicate with her over the last decade was fruitless . Back in 1995 , Rev Mark Anderson drove a wedge between us. He counselled my sister into breaking off all ties with my husband and myself. I married a man than Rev Anderson did not approve of . We had the wedding in the Catholic Church and I originally asked Rev Anderson to take part in a two faith ceremony and he had 10001 reasons for me to not marry outside my faith. He declined to take part in my wedding and he began telling my family bad things about me. He convinced my sister to not be my maid of honor and eventually Anderson convinced my sister to not attend and she broke off all ties with us. Anderson was not a normal rational minister and he separated me from my family out of spite and self righteousness.
