For more information call 248.651.7486. ¡Bienvenido! On The Journey (continued from page 1) strong, and God chose the lowly and despised of the world, those who count for nothing, to reduce to nothing those who are something. Our Catholic Christian belief is that Christ is our redemption and our justification, and that living a life modeled onthe Beatitudes leads to happiness and fulfillment. That belief is now two thousand years old, and is still strongly held by more than two billion people. Friedrich Nietzsche is very much dead, and God is quite alive in this world because of those who believe in Jesus Christ and strive to live the message of the Beatitudes. As we move further into this new year of 2017, let’s work at making sure the Beatitudes are clearly written on our hearts – and expressed in our daily actions! +After much help, review, (and jostling of the computer running the thing for all I know!), the boiler system in church has been running well and as planned! There are just a couple “tweaks” that need to be made, but things have been running smoothly, and automatically, as programmed. Thanks for your patience. After receiving the final inspection reports, all the manuals, etc., we will be releasing our final payment – and then proceed on to our next project! +There is still time to sign up for the next wave of Alpha here at St. Andrew. The Saturday Men’s Prayer group has already started their wave. Why not sign up now and continue your journey to rediscover Jesus and your faith in your life?! +Prayers and support for our second and final group of second graders who made their first reconciliation on Saturday this weekend. We keep all of you in prayer as you continue to journey toward your first Holy Communion right after Easter! +The celebrations and ordinations for our two new auxiliary bishops this past week – Bishop Robert Fisher and Bishop Gerard Battersby – were wonderful and spiritually thought-provoking. Please keep our new bishops in your prayers; Bishop Fisher will have responsibility for the Northeast Region, and Bishop Battersby will have responsibility for the South Region of the Archdiocese. +Your generosity at Christmas totaled almost $333K – which was $35K more than last year, and significantly more than the budgeted amount. These sacrificial offerings have helped us to pay off the remaining $120K in debt that was on the parish books, which came about from the old vicariate bond debt restructuring. WE ARE NOW DEBT –FREE! Since my arrival, we have diligently worked to pay it off early, saving more than two years of interest expense in the process (that would have been around $15,000). I prayerfully thank you all for your generosity! Now we will have more funds to assist us in addressing the various maintenance issues that exist on our parish campus. +May we all respond to the call of Jesus to be his true disciples each and every day.

  • Community Report 2019
    COMMUNITY REPORT 2019 Mission The Catholic Foundation of Michigan inspires charitable giving and assists generous donors providing for the long-term needs of Catholic parishes, schools, ministries and other organizations of southeast Michigan. Invest. Serve. Grow. Serve. Invest. EXTRAORDINARY GROWTH AND 2019 INSPIRING COLLABORATION Dear Friends, You need a strong foundation to build something that will last. In 2016, a group of visionary lay leaders established the Catholic Foundation of Michigan. Since then, the Foundation has grown to meet the needs of our community and beyond, building up parishes, strengthening schools and supporting dynamic ministries. We could not have done this good work in our Catholic community without you. In our third year, the Catholic Foundation of Michigan continues to be blessed with generous support from our donors while supporting the ever-growing need of ministries in our area. During 2019, the Foundation’s portfolio grew to nearly $16 million, and since its founding, it has granted over $3 million. This impressive growth is due in large part to the many people who participate in making an impact in our community. When people work together for a shared goal, dynamic energy and enthusiasm is created that leads to a greater outpouring of generosity. Our report this year celebrates that kind of community-based collaboration. This report tells the stories of faithful and generous collaborators who are passionate about a better tomorrow. You are a part of our story. We are grateful for all that you have offered, and we look forward to continuing to work with you for years to come.

  • S Unleash the Gospel Embraces Missionary Spirit
    Archdiocese of Detroit’s Unleash the Gospel embraces missionary spirit With the priests and lay faithful in the Archdiocese of Detroit increasingly embracing a new missionary spirit of intense discipleship, the Catholic Church appears to be on the move again in the Motor City. “There is a burgeoning hope in the Archdiocese of Detroit that this is bigger than us, that this is God’s work, and it’s his plan,” Auxiliary Bishop Gerard William Battersby said in referring to Unleash The Gospel, a local initiative of renewal and reevangelization. Through a yearslong path of prayer and discernment that included a special year of prayer for a new Pentecost in Detroit and an archdiocesan-wide synod in 2016, Bishop Battersby told Our Sunday Visitor that he believes the Holy Spirit is revealing that God “has staked his claim” on not only renewing the Church in Southeastern Michigan, but also in the United States and across the world. “Unleash The Gospel is not a numbers game,” Bishop Battersby said. “It’s about falling in love with the one who loves us, and that’s a person-by-person change.” Unleash The Gospel made recent national headlines when Archbishop Allen Vigneron of Detroit announced in mid-May that the archdiocese would be ceasing youth sporting events on Sundays to reclaim the Sabbath as a day of prayer and rest. “One of the clearest calls from Synod 16 was for our Church to reclaim Sunday as a day set apart for the Lord, for family and for works of mercy,” the archbishop wrote in a pastoral note that explained the reasoning for halting Sunday CYO and Catholic high school sports games and practices.
