Saint Stephen Martyr Catholic Church, Catholic church building on Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington D.C., United States.
The church features a modern brick and stone structure with a freestanding bell tower and a sanctuary accommodating 700 people at 2436 Pennsylvania Avenue NW.
Founded on August 4, 1867, Saint Stephen Martyr Catholic Church moved to its current structure in 1961 after safety concerns led to replacing the original building.
The parish maintains strong connections with religious education through Saint Stephen's Parish School for Boys, which opened its doors in 1872.
The church schedules masses on Saturday evening at 5:30 pm and Sundays at 9:00 am, 11:00 am, and 5:30 pm, with additional weekday services.
President John F. Kennedy frequented this church, which later contributed items to the White House for his lying in repose ceremony following his assassination.
