Founded in 1919 as the Barthman Ave. Catholic Community House, a neighborhood center on the southside to help new eastern European immigrants, Hungarians, Croatians, and others to build ocmmunity, share the gospel, and support workers in Steelton by offering social activities and wholesome entertainment in the evening. The building acquired was formerly a theater - 2 story with a large hall on the 1st floor. When Bishop Hartley bought the building, he asked the Catholic Woman's War Relief to operate it. In 1929 the name changed to St. Stephens Community House.
