St Margaret Catholic Church

About this church

St Margaret Catholic Church, officially presented online as St. Margaret of Antioch, celebrates Sunday Mass at 9:00 a.m. in the Osage Bend area of Jefferson City; the Rosary begins at 8:30. The parish website also lists a final-Saturday schedule with confession from 8:00 to 8:50 a.m., Rosary at 8:30, and Mass at 9:00. Because St. Margaret shares clergy and online information with St. Stanislaus, visitors should distinguish the Route W church’s times from the separate Mass schedule published for the neighboring parish.

The congregation traces its local roots to Catholic families who organized a church in 1907 after years of traveling to other parishes or relying on an occasional visiting priest. Its grounds include a cemetery grotto built sometime between 1928 and 1942, where Mass was once celebrated for All Souls. The parish mission joins Catholic faith formation with stewardship, care for families, service to the wider community, and Christian witness. Its worship-and-prayer resources explain the Catholic understanding of liturgy, Scripture, sacraments, and active congregational participation. St. Margaret may appeal to Catholics seeking a small historic parish, a single Sunday morning Mass, and a clearly identified devotional rhythm of Rosary, reconciliation, and Eucharist.
