Description

Liturgical style and practice

Everything that we do at Saint Margaret’s begins and ends with worship. It is through our common life of worship; our common call to gather in the name of the Risen Lord, that all of our actions and all of our words are given their full life and meaning. It is only through coming to the Lord’s Table and receiving the Blessed Sacrament that we are enabled to go into the world forgiven, changed, transformed, and empowered to do the work of Christ in an increasingly broken world.

The early Christian church centered its life on the regular worship of Christ in word and music. At Saint Margaret’s, our faithful obedience in worship is the primary act which binds us together as brothers and sisters in Christ.

Strengths

Saint Margaret’s Episcopal Church is an exciting, vibrant, growing, and sacramentally centered parish in the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina and a member of the worldwide Anglican Communion! Located in Waxhaw, North Carolina, we are located just south of Charlotte in one of the fastest growing counties of the state. We believe that this church is a special church; a church in which you will feel the presence of Jesus in a real and dynamic way.

Challenges

As we are blessed with growth, we are seeking an additional preist to serve our community.
