We gathered last Sunday (August 7, 2022) in the Parish Hall to share in an historical story-telling event. To trigger some thoughts these questions were offered by Craig Watson who presented and moderated the session:

• Do you remember you first day attending St. Margaret’s? What stands out about that memory?
• What personal or family milestones have you celebrated at the church? What made them most memorable?
• What current or former parishioner or clergy member had a big impact on you and why?
• What do you think Maude Gammons would feel about the trajectory of our parish?
• What are some of your most important “hopes” for the future of St. Margaret’s?

It was exciting to see so many parishioners in attendance and with their own stories to tell.

Others spoke about the Rev. Truman Fudge who was Rector of St. Margaret’s for 20 years (1974-1994) and the changes that came about during his time. Parishioners who made a mark on the parish but are no longer with us were remember. The Rev. Tom Duplessie, our first Deacon (2012-2016) was remembered to include a tribute “Ubiquitous Tom”, penned by John Cuozzo.

We also had the opportunity to welcome our very newest parishioners!
