We are truly blessed to have the opportunity for Eucharistic Adoration at St. Margaret’s every Wednesday, a sacred time to step away from the busyness of life and spend quiet, prayerful time with Our Lord.
Each Wednesday, the church is open for Adoration from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and everyone is warmly invited to participate. Even one hour in His presence can bring peace, clarity, and grace to your week.
If you are able to commit to an hour, we kindly ask you to sign up using the link below. Our goal is to have at least four adorers each hour, ensuring that Jesus is never left alone.
Signing up for the same hour each week is especially helpful and allows us to provide consistent coverage throughout the day.
Your commitment, whether weekly or occasional, makes a meaningful difference for our parish community.
To learn more about Eucharistic Adoration and to reserve an hour, please use the link below.

| | Holy Spirit Summer Lunch Program | |
Summer is approaching, and for many children in our community—over 25% in the southwest LS area, Raymore, and Peculiar—it means the end of reliable school meals and the start of summer hunger. The Summer Lunch Program provides vital nourishment, but our need for support has never been greater. Please answer the call: soaring food costs means every dollar makes a difference, and every volunteer hour ensures a child receives a meal.
We could also use donation supplies. When you are at the grocery store, please pick up some sandwich, snack, or gallon size Ziploc or re-closable bags, boxes of individual chips, boxes of individual cookies, and/or Kool-Aid Jammers. These can be dropped off in the parish office. Thank you for your support!

| | Retrouvaille - Kansas City |
Restore Your Marriage and Rebuild a Loving Relationship
Retrouvaille is different than other marriage programs. Some spouses resist the idea of attending the program, out of concern that they will be required to expose their personal lives and their marital problems. None of this is true. In fact, the program is entirely unique, and most couples find that this is the very thing that worked when all else failed.
Register for the Upcoming Kansas City Weekend
July 19-21
| | Golden Wedding Anniversary Mass |
The Golden Wedding Anniversary will be held on Sunday, September 13 for couples whose 50th Wedding Anniversary falls between January 1, 2026 and December 31, 2026. This event is open to couples and their immediate family.
The celebration will begin with Mass at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Kansas City at 11:00 AM followed by a reception in the new event space – Donnelly Hall.
You can go here to find the form to complete. You may fill out the form or have the couple do so. This form does not require a password.
Please complete the information below by August 26, 2026.
If a couple is unable to attend, but would like to be honored, please indicate this so that their gift and card can be mailed to them.

Please join our parish family in prayer as we ask our Heavenly Father to welcome with mercy the soul of our beloved parishioner, Bill Trollinger, a Pioneer Member of St. Margaret of Scotland. With sorrow in our hearts, we commend Bill to God, trusting that he has now gone from his earthly home into the peace and joy of God’s heavenly kingdom.
Please also keep Bill’s wife, Nadine; his children, Bryan Trollinger and Andrea and Jason Weis; his grandson, Ethan Trollinger; and all of their family in your prayers. May we also remember with love all who cherished Bill and were blessed to know him as a dear friend, as together we grieve his passing and give thanks for the gift of his life and the love he shared so generously.
May we find comfort in the hope that one day we will be reunited with him. In this time of sorrow, may God hold us close in the tenderness of His love, strengthen us with His compassion, and surround us with His peace. May Bill rejoice forever in the fullness of the Father’s presence in heaven. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
