Hopefully you have read Archbishop Kurtz’s letter to all the faithful of our Archdiocese in the Record, but I wish to include some words of my own. Clicking on the link below, you will find our plans to resume the public celebration of the Mass. Please understand there may need to be revisions after the experience of our first weekend. We all rely on our prayers for one another and for the gift of discernment from the Holy Spirit. Let us be patient with one another and serve Christ in one another and for the common good of all.
A reminder, even with allowing for the celebration of “public” Mass, Archbishop Kurtz has issued a dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation for the Archdiocese of Louisville, until further notice. Anyone who is sick or living with someone who is sick or who feels vulnerable in any way should stay home. St. Margaret Mary will continue offering livestreamed Masses at 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays which would then be uploaded for later viewing, for those who cannot be physically present. Visit our website www.stmm.org or get our weekly email updates. Or you can watch “Mass of the Air” on TV.
Our Children’s Formation Coordinator, Tara Mattingly, created a video for the kids to keep them learning and interactive in their growing faith. This week, she covered the Eucharist: Thanksgiving & Real Presence. Click here to watch now! To view a list of the previous videos shared, click here.

You are now able to submit your contributions ONLINE. This is a safe & secure way to continue your pledge and support for St. Margaret Mary. You are still welcome to mail in or drop off your donation to the Parish Office or in the locked night drop outside the main entrance to the Parish building. *All current automatic withdrawals are continuing as scheduled.
