A Franciscan Parish in the Archdiocese of Detroit

Browsing FROM THE DESK OF FR. JEFF

July 23-24, 2016

By the time you read this, our dedicated pastor Fr. Bill will be back. I’m writing this now to meet the bulletin deadline. 
 
Many opportunities are waiting for you!
 
The Parish Mission of Mercy is only a week away--Sunday July 31 at 7:00 p.m. and the following two days. Come and bring a friend. Tuesday August 2 is the very special 800th anniversary of the Pope giving St. Francis the privilege of a Plenary Indulgence for those praying at St. Mary of the Angels, the Portiuncula. Don’t miss the special Mass here at 7:00.
 
You don’t need to sign up for the mission but we do ask you to sign up in the gathering room for our Parish Pilgrimage to the Holy Door at the cathedral on Wednesday, August 3. Also you need to sign up for the Parish Picnic. It will start after the noon Mass, Sunday, August 10. Paula Hillman needs to know how much food to order. The picnic will be our opportunity to thank Deacon Thomas Mohan for his generous service. The Motor City Brass Band will play for us.
 
The feast of Saints Anne and Joachim is Tuesday, July 26.St. Anne is the patroness of our Archdiocese. On Monday at 7:00 p.m. Archbishop Vigneron is celebrating the feast at the Cathedral. You’ll notice the painting of St. Anne on the wall after you enter the main door from Code St. Ask her blessings on the Archdiocese and all mothers and grandmothers!
 
Thanks to all those who this very Sunday are cooking and serving dinner at Crossroads and to all of you who made donations to buy the food.
 
Finally, thanks to all of you who have offered me your prayerful support! I’m grateful for all your prayers and will ask God to share them with many people who are sicker than I. Fr. Jeremy
