"Pray.  Serve.  Belong."  That's the mission of St. Stephen the Witness Catholic Student Center in Cedar Falls, IA.  As Chaplain Fr. Mark Murphy explains, St. Stephen serves the spiritual needs of college students from the University of Northern Iowa, Hawkeye Community College, Allen College, and Wartburg College, all of which are in the Waterloo and Waverly areas of the Archdiocese of Dubuque.  Because St. Stephen is a student center instead of a parish, it receives no formal or regular source of income.  If you are in a position to help serve the needs of these students, please make a donation!  Gifts can be brought to either Emmaus Pastorate office in Elkader or Edgewood, mailed to the address below, or made online at the following link.  Thank you for your generosity!  And thanks to Fr. Mark for spreading the word about St. Stephen!

Make checks payable and send to St. Stephen the Witness Catholic Student Center, 1019 West 23rd Street Cedar Falls, IA 50613.
