St. Stephen’s, Austin, Welcomes New Chaplain Rev. Aimée Eyer-Delevett

St. Stephen's Episcopal School, Austin, held an Installation Ceremony for its new Chaplain Rev. Aimée Eyer-Delevett on Oct. 28, 2022. The welcome ceremony included music, hymns, stories, and prayers and was well attended by the St. Stephen’s community.

At the ceremony, Bishop Suffragan of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas the Rt. Rev. Kathryn M. Ryan, charged Aimee with the oversight of the spiritual development and pastoral care of the students, faculty, and staff at the school.

Community presented symbolic gifts to the new chaplain and acknowledged the many roles she will fill in the St. Stephen’s community. Roles include pastor, priest, leader, educator, healer, mentor, and friend. Ryan then commissioned her as the new chaplain at the school.

Morgan Stokes, lay chaplain, acknowledged that Eyer-Delevett’s ministry is well underway:

“This meaningful service provided sacred space for us to celebrate what has begun through her and what God will continue to do. We are thankful God has chosen Rev. Aimée to minister to our community and believe the Spirit will work through her in powerful ways as she calls us deeper into our identity as children of God.”
