Senior Warden
I was born and raised in Knoxville, Tenn., and have been an Episcopalian my entire life. Upon graduating from college, I joined the Air Force and eventually made my way to Texas in 1996. I began attending St. Margaret’s in 1997, and have been a member since then. I have been involved in various ministries over the years and am currently the Senior Warden and a member of the Praise Band that plays at the Contemporary Service. I retired from my “day job” in December 2023 and enjoy spending more time on church activities as well as traveling.
Parish Administrator
Lauren “Lo” Benton is the Office Administrator for St. Margaret’s Episcopal Church and School.

Her involvement at St. Margaret’s began with her mother, Stacey, who is a former teacher at the school. Arthur is also a student at St. Margaret’s.

She has found great passion in this neighborhood church where her work each day consists of friendly faces, problem-solving, and making positive change in the community.

To serve God, we the people of St. Margaret’s Church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, come together to reach out in faith and love to all people with the Good News of God’s reconciling Grace in Jesus Christ. We do this through our worship, nurture, and outreach.
