The Stars Ministry is a faith community within St. Stephen’s dedicated to creating a sacred, safe, and joyful space for individuals with mental and intellectual disabilities. We believe that every person is a beloved child of God, created with unique gifts and a unique purpose. Our mission is to remove barriers to worship, ensuring that everyone, regardless of ability, can experience the love of Christ and the fellowship of the church.

We understand that a traditional church service can be overwhelming. The bright lights, loud music, and large crowds can be too much for those with sensory sensitivities. That is why The Stars Ministry is designed specifically with sensory-friendly practices at its core.

We invite you to come as you are. Whether you are seeking a community for your family member or are interested in volunteering with our team, we would love to meet you.

For more information, or to let us know you are coming (so we can prepare a special welcome), please contact us at stars@ssclive.org / 502-409-0390 .
