About our Parish
We are a diverse, urban, Catholic parish. Inspired by the Holy Spirit and the example of our patroness, we are called to be a vibrant voice and beacon of the Catholic faith in our neighborhoods.
Parish History
St. Margaret of Scotland Church was birthed on Christmas Day 1899. Founding pastor Father John J. O’Brien was tasked with starting a Catholic parish in the rapidly growing area near Henry Shaw’s garden and the Tower Grove neighborhood.
