June 26 - Mass & Service at Corpus Christi

This summer we are offering an opportunity to join together with our sister parish, Corpus Christi, on Sunday, June 26 to celebrate the Feast of Corpus Christi at Mass and then work together in service.  We will carpool from St. Francis at 10am to attend the 11:00 am Mass at Corpus Christi in Detroit first.  Since it is their feast day, it promises to be an especially wonderful Mass.  As some of you may recall, their choir came to sing with ours the last few years for Martin Luther King Day and led some spirit-filled worship.  Their pastor is a wonderful preacher as well. 

Following the Mass, Corpus Christi will provide lunch for us (free will donations accepted, should you choose to contribute) and then we will work together with them to unload and sort the groceries collected by St. Francis during our next food drive, as well as help prepare and decorate their classrooms for their upcoming summer camp.  There is work available to do regardless of your physical ability, so don't let that stop you.  Children are also welcome if you want to make this a family event.  We will be back at St. Francis by 4:30 pm at the latest.  Check out the following link for more information and/or to sign up:
