Settling in Oak Park, the Stephens family has been active at Epiphany for the past 22 years. Daughters Camille and Jillian were Choristers and served as Acolytes; Stacey has served as a Lector, was Treasurer for 4 years, and is the membership chair for Red Door Vineyard; and Steve has served as a Lector, an Usher, a Bishop’s Committee member (twice), and has led the Red Door Vineyard Guild as its president since its inception 7 years ago.

Visiting Epiphany, they were very moved by the sermon of Rev. Hank Mitchell on the subject of “Why I am an Episcopalian” which emphasized the diversity of views that are encouraged in the Episcopal Church and by the wonderful words of welcome: “No matter where you are in your journey of faith, you are welcome here. ”Over the years, Tony has served the church as an usher, lector, and church treasurer.In his work life, he has been a professor at Pepperdine University School of Law for over 40 years.
