We have a very active youth group at St. Margaret's that connects teens (middle & high school students) to a spiritual journey of faith, friendship, service, and leadership. Here are some examples of the many activities this group experiences:

Youth Group Mondays - (Sept. - May) - 6:45 to 8:15 p.m. - Students in middle and high school explore a variety of topics that are important to their daily lives, while providing support and encouragement to their peers. 

Diocesan Activities - We encourage our youth to connect with the Diocese of Maryland youth programs, including:

• Happening & New Beginnings, national retreats designed, staffed, and run by Episcopal youth to deepen and foster faith connections with those on similar spiritual journeys;
• Nightwatch (Philadelphia or New York) - A night of spirituality and fellowship for young people in grades 6-12 that take place in a large cathedral in an urban setting;
• Bishop's Unplugged- a fun night of food, music, and fellowship with youth across the diocese, including visiting with Bishop Sutton

Service Learning - We provide access for our teens to serve their local community and church, including:

• serving dinner at the Light House homeless shelter in Annapolis;
• providing child care to parents attending church-related events;
• assisting younger children of the church in various programs throughout the church program year (Epiphany Pageant and Summer Bible Camp);
• participating in the Women's Guild Holiday Bazaar;
• assisting with Camp Allen (an outreach program of SMC for the Hispanic families of Allen Apartments in Annapolis.

Social Fellowship - From laser tag to lock-ins to bubble soccer, our youth group knows how to have fun!
