Sharing
Wisdom All women of St. Stephen's are invited to join this casually
structured group which discussed anything and everything that comes to mind. It
is a fun time, a serious time, a sentimental time, a time to share what is on
your mind, knowing that what is said doesn't leave the room. Sunday mornings at
9:00 (between Sunday services) grab a cup of coffee and head for the Library.

active listening, which involves commitment, patience, and attention to body
language. Stephen Ministers learn to listen for more than just words. They seek
true understanding and empathy.
