We have resumed our parish RCIA program on Sunday mornings. The RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) provides a place for those who are being drawn by the Spirit to become Catholic. Last year we had three young people who joined our faith through the RCIA. We have already had several people express interest in becoming Catholic this year. If you know someone who would like to find out more about the Catholic Church, it is not to late to let Mike Dillon know by phone (248-569-4304) or email (mjdillon@comcast.net). We have been including information about the RCIA for several weeks in the bulletin.
Save the Date! Early October will be busy around the parish, as it is the time we celebrate St. Francis' feastday on October 4th. This year we host a special prayer service which commemorates the death of St. Francis. The service is called the Transitus, and it always occurs on the eve of the feast. Come join many local men and women Franciscans at 7:30pm in our church. We will have a mass on Saturday morning at 8am to celebrate the feastday. At 11am we will bless family pets in the prayer garden.
