Members of the youth group will have Epiphany home blessing kits after all masses at St. Margaret Mary this coming weekend.

Each kit contains chalk, holy water, and the Epiphany Home Blessing Prayer.

We are asking for a donation of $10 per kit. Proceeds will directly support our parish youth ministry, helping fund youthgroup gatherings, activities, and snacks throughout the year.

Thank you for supporting our young people and their faith formation!

The St. Margaret Mary Parish and NKCC Parish Offices will be closed on Wednesday December 31st and Thursday January 1st in observance of New Year’s Day.

What are the sacraments, where do they come from, and why are they important? Join us for an 11-week study as we explore the Biblical foundations of the sacraments of the Church. We will explore the foundational teaching of the Church as to their meaning and origin, and investigate the deeper mystery of the sacraments as illuminated by Sacred Scripture.

Sessions begin Tuesday, January 27 at 11:00am in Room B-1 at Saint Margaret Mary.

Please contact Tim Ruflin if you would like to purchase a study book.

What is the Bible, where does it come from, and what is its purpose? How are Catholics supposed to read the Bible, and what story does it tell?

This study will explore these ever important questions and provide us with answers to better understand and incorporate the Sacred Scriptures into our everyday lives.

All are welcome to join this 12-week study beginning Thursday February 5th at 1:00 PM at Peter's Table at Mount Saint Peter.

Please contact Tim Ruflin if you would like to purchase the study book.
