About Stephen
Stephen has filled many roles over the course of his career, all revolving around care for the Earth and particularly forests. Most recently, he served as a priest in the Episcopal Church, founder of Church of the Woods in Canterbury, NH, and co-founder of the Wild Church Network. He retired from that role in 2024 and now serves as forest guardian for the 106 acres where the church meets, as a spiritual companion, and as a writer.
