WaveCAST Assistive Listening Technology is now available at St. Margaret Mary.

Wave CAST allows parishioners to stream audio seamlessly to their own personal iOS or Android device or stream audio to a Williams AV dedicated receiver using Wi-Fi.  This helps to improve the listening experience, especially for those hard of hearing or using a hearing aid currently.

Printed copies of instructions on how to take advantage of this technology to improve your listening experience are available at the Welcome Desk.

You may also review the instructions here.

Please note that you may dowload and install the app on your phone from home but you will need to be in the church in order to connect to the WiFi network.

Join us on Saturday, December 7th, immediately following the 4 PM Mass for an evening of family fun.

Light refreshments will be served. To ensure adequate supplies, please sign up today by signing the sheet located at the Welcome Desk or using the online sign up form located here.

Do you pray for priests? Our priests need your prayers now more than ever.

Seven Sisters Apostolate has a mission for women of our parishes to pray for our priests. Each woman chooses a different day of the week and offers one Holy Hour for a specific priest.

Interested in this mission, please contact Lucille Mason at ronlu1@comcast.net.

“When people want to destroy religion they begin by attacking the priest; for when there is no priest, there is no sacrifice; and when there is no sacrifice, there is no religion.” St. John Vianney
