Catholic Services Appeal 2020

RISE UP AND BE NOT AFRAID!

As we continue our mission to bring the love and hope of Christ through our communities, even in the face of challenge and uncertainty, we are reminded of his invitation to his disciples to “Rise up, and be not afraid” (Mt 7:17). How can we, too, answer this call and love one another as Jesus loved us? How can we better be his hands and feet in our communities?Your generous support of our mission as an Archdiocese through the Catholic Services Appeal will enable us to do just this, and to continue to respond to the needs of our parishes and communities, especially now, and continue the work of Christ to bring people of Southeast Michigan the kind of hope that does not disappoint.Your gift helps support men who are discerning a vocation to the priesthood.It impacts youth, family, and young adult ministries to help people at all stages of life grow in faith. It helps Catholic schools continue to form the next generation of leaders and disciples.. It helps our food pantries and soup kitchens feed and clothethe poor. Your gift brings Jesus to Southeast Michigan in a very real and tangible way.

Thank you for this support. Please prayerfully consider making a one-time or a monthly gift today at www.givecsa.org and select St. Ephrem Parish.

AUGUST 14 UPDATE from Archbishop Vigneron

Archbishop Vigneron has extended the dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation for all the faithful in the Archdiocese of Detroit, as well as for all travelers during their time within the territory of the Archdiocese of Detroit, until Monday, November 23, 2020. While the dispensation from the grave obligation to attend Sunday Mass is in effect, all baptized Catholics are reminded of the grave necessity they have to keep holy the Lord’s Day.

We are grateful for the many ways that parish members and visitors support St. Ephrem parish, giving their time, talent and treasure to help this parish live out its mission and ministry in
the name of Jesus Christ.
