St. Stephen's Episcopal Church - Oxford, NC Episcopal church dedicated to sharing the Gospel and love of Christ Jesus. Located in historic downtown Oxford, North Carolina, St. The people at St.

Stephen’s is a small but vibrant parish dedicated to living out the Gospel by following the example of Saint Stephen, the church’s first martyr and one of the first twelve deacons. Each week we gather to celebrate the ancient rite of Holy Eucharist on Sundays, Morning Prayer on Thursdays, and Centering Prayer on Wednesday evenings. We are committed to contemplative prayer practices, creation care,

and service to our community. Stephen’s want to know and help our neighbors and the parish partners with a number of local agencies, such as Area Congregations in Ministry, the Boys and Girls Club, Murdoch Developmental Center, and Hope House. Through these ongoing worship and service activities, we try to live out our mission to share “the Gospel and love of Christ Jesus through service to our Church, community, and world.”

On Sunday, August 30th, our guest preacher for both services will be Dr. Ellen Davis, of Duke Divinity School. In addition to preaching, Ellen will lead a discussion during our Adult Forum time (9:00 a.m. in the Parlor) on Translating the Psalms. Currently, Dr. Davis is the Amos Ragan Kearns Distinguished Professor of Bible and Practical Theology at Duke Divinity School. An Episcopal layperson, she is the author of twelve books and many short pieces that focus on biblical interpretation, preaching, and use of the Hebrew Scriptures to address public issues, including agriculture and ecological destruction, interfaith work, and how the arts may illumine faith. Her new translation of the Psalter appears in The Chapel Hymnal (MorningStar, 2027); other recent books include Light within Light: Psalms and the Arts of Insight (Baylor University Press, 2027) and Reading Israel’s Scriptures (Oxford University Press, 2019).
