Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament:
St Margaret Mary Alocoque died in France in 1690 and was the primary person to spread the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. When her tomb was opened in July, 1830, two instantaneous cures took place. Her body rests under the altar in the chapel at Paray, and many favors have been obtained by those who have sought her intercession.
At St. Margaret Mary we continue the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by celebrating Mass at 7pm on the
First Friday of the month and at noon on the First Saturday of every month. Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament continues after Mass. Also, following the daily Mass on Wednesday, we honor the Sacred Heart of Jesus by keeping a Holy Hour.
Our patron saint, St. Margaret
Mary understood the value and joy of spending time with our
Lord at Mass and in adoration in front of the Blessed Sacrament.
The Eucharistic Chapel is available to all those who wish to
visit and spend time with our Lord.
For 24/7 access to the Eucharistic Chapel please stop by the office to obtain a key card. There is $5 fee to help defray the cost of the access cards.
Prayer
Chain :
This Ministry is sometimes called
the Prayer Hotline. This group consists of a number of people
who will help you pray for a special need or intention.
As soon as a request is made, calls are then made to other
members of the group who offer prayers for your needs.

Schoenstatt:
Schoenstatt offers a way of
life, which affects every aspect of one’s life and one’s
relationship with others. There is no demand to say certain
prayers, participate in activities or attend meetings and
gatherings. Schoenstatt does intend to stimulate the practice
of self-education and tries to ensure each person strive for
perfection. It offers monthly meetings for mothers about the
spirituality of the movement and its application to daily
life, to questions about the Church and problems of our time.
Usually people of similar calling join together in small groups
(8-10 people or 5-8 couples) and receive spiritual enrichment
and ideas to help attain their spiritual goals. Annual retreats,
days of reflection, summer camps, family picnics and other
activities are also offered.
