Ministry on the Margins

Helping Those Who Have Fallen Through the Cracks

Ministry on the Margins is a ministry committed to supporting people who have fallen through the cracks while they are in a time of transition. More than 1,000 people a week are served through their clothing pantry, food pantry, support groups, and prison or MRCC outreach. The ministry was started by Sister Kathleen Atkinson, OSB, a Benedictine Sister from Annunciation Monastery in Bismarck, ND.
