As we continue our journey through the Jubilee Year 2025, Pope Francis calls us to deepen our faith through pilgrimage and prayer. While Rome is a distant destination for some, the Archdiocese of Detroit offers a sacred journey closer to home: The National Shrine of the Little

On today's Feast of the Chair of St. Peter, let us unite in prayer for his successor, Pope Francis, asking God to grant him comfort, healing, and strength in this time of trial. I have asked all parishes in the @archofdet to include these intentions in their weekend Masses.

Let us lift in prayer the men who attended this weekend’s Discernment Retreat at @shmsdetroit. May God grant them clarity and courage as they continue to listen attentively to His call and discern their vocation.
Over the next four days, men from across the @ArchofDet will gather for a Discernment Weekend at @shmsdetroit where they will enter into an intentional period of priestly discernment. Please pray the Discernment Weekend is a fruitful time of prayer, discernment, and fraternity.

Throughout this Jubilee Year, @DetroitCatholic plans to highlight each of the 12 @archofdet pilgrimage sites, beginning with the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Detroit. Come as pilgrims of hope to pray with relics, reflect on the Jubilee Cross, and deepen your faith.
As we enter the Jubilee Year 2025, Pope Francis invites Catholics to embark on a pilgrimage of hope. While Rome may be the destination for some, the Archdiocese of Detroit offers sacred pilgrimage sites right here at home. The Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament is honored
