St. Margaret Mary Church

It’s almost time for the annual SMM Flea Market! Starting to spring clean? Set aside those donations!

The Flea Market will take place on Thursday May 7th and Friday May 8th from 9:00 to 6:00 PM, and Saturday May 9th from 9:00 - 11:00 (bag and cart sale).

Donations will be accepted from 9:00 to 6:00 PM on Monday May 4th and Tuesday May 5th.

We CANNOT accept Clothes, Computers, Exercise Equipment, Stuffed Animals, Furniture, Christmas trees and lights, lamps and luggage, no building materials (tiles, plywood, pipes, paint, drywall)

Only clean and usable items will be accepted.

The flea market will have four sections: housewares and jewelry in the Sullivan Room, books and records in the church lobby, seasonal and toys in the food bank room, and tools, bikes, medical, yard, and other miscellaneous items in the outside tent. There will not be any food sales this year.

As part of our celebration of the 75th Anniversary of the Diocese of Greensburg, Bishop Larry J. Kulick has scheduled Listening Sessions in all seven deaneries this Spring.

Bishop Kulick invites the faithful to gather and reflect on Our Foundation - Our Future as we work together, with the help of the Holy Spirit, to shape the future of our parishes, faith formation programs, Catholic Schools, and how we serve those in need. Bishop Kulick hopes these Listening Sessions will be a time of discussion and collaboration as we prayerfully discern the needs of our diocese now and for future generations.

The faithful are encouraged to attend one of these sessions most convenient to your schedule.

Our grandparents and parents sacrificed to build our parishes after spending long days in mines, mills and factories. They wanted their children to have places of worship to gather and to pass our faith on to the next generation. The Office of Faith, Family and Discipleship continues that legacy by providing faith formation to both children and adults. When you make your gift to the 2026 Diocesan Lenten Appeal, 75 Years: Our Foundation, Our Future, you continue the legacy of passing on the faith to the next generation.
