St. Margaret's After School Program
During the academic year, we offer an After School Program to students in the surrounding schools. Because we do not have a bus/van, our staff walk to the neighboring schools and pick up the students. The students are brought here to our site where they are assisted with their homework and fed.
Hours of operation:
Monday through Friday from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm.

St. Margaret's Mental Health Ministry
"While we have always had presentations on mental health issues and have used the resources in our community and in the parish to help us talk about mental health issues, the opportunity has just arisen when a community member asked us to partner with her in her advocacy work. Our next meeting with her, our 2nd, is in September."
St. Margaret's Prison MInistry
"We are committed to a ministry of prayer and support. At the moment we use our Sunday liturgy as a testament of our commitment to our incarcerated sisters and brothers by publicly praying for them. We look forward to visiting a prison during the Holidays."
St. Margaret's Summer Day Camp
Every year, beginning after the 4th of July holiday till the end of August we offer a fun-filled, educational and culturally enriched Day Camp.
