Parish Membership Policy:
St. Stephen the Martyr is defined by geographic boundaries determined by the Diocese of Arlington. The Pastor is entrusted with the care of souls who live within his territorial boundaries, principally providing the ministry of the sacraments and the religious education of children.
Residence within parochial boundaries, whether or not registered with the Parish, determines true “member of the Parish” status. Canonically any Catholic residing within the Parish is a parishioner, whether or not he or she is active or registered. For better care of souls, we encourage all parishioners to register with the Parish. All those wishing to register who live outside the boundaries may do so at the Pastor’s discretion. Currently, membership is extended to those who live in next-door parishes and aren’t deemed to live too far away. To attain this status, an individual or family is to submit the filled-out parish registration form with a letter addressed to the Pastor requesting membership and stating briefly the reasons for the change. It ought to include a statement of intention to change parish registration from a former parish (if it applies) to St. Stephen the Martyr. If these requests come from a family with catechetical aged children, the registration needed to be completed by November 18, 2025 in order to be eligible to register for the 2026 – 2027 Religious Education program.
