Family of Parishes Vacation Bible School

This year’s VBS which is entitled, True North: Trusting Jesus in a Wild World will be offered and open to all family participants, Pre K through the 6th grade on August 11th-14th, 8:30am until noon at Church of the Transfiguration. 

This VBS points kids to Jesus, a faithful friend we can always trust. It guides them on the ultimate Alaskan adventure where northern lights glow over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and glistening glaciers. As kids trek the tundra, they’ll explore how easy it is to lose sight of what’s true, beautiful, and good in our wild world. 

You can register your kids on the Family Sent on Mission website link: https://www.gotomatthew28.com/events-1/vacation-bible-school.

Archbishop Vigneron's Pastoral Note

On Feb. 6, 2025, Archbishop Vigneron issued his Pastoral Note entitled

No Second Tunic

A Plan for Mission-Ready Families of Parishes in the Archdiocese of Detroit

In a new pastoral note released Feb. 6, "No Second Tunic: A Plan for Mission-Ready Families of Parishes in the Archdiocese of Detroit,” Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron said the Archdiocese of Detroit will undergo a multi-year process of renewal in order to create "mission-ready Families of Parishes," ready to respond in faith to the challenges of modern evangelization, including a declining number of priests and a surplus of aging infrastructure.
