Welcome to St. Edith Catholic Church!

ALL ARE WELCOME AT ST. EDITH PARISH

We will welcome you regardless of your present status in the Catholic Church. We will welcome you regardless of your current family situation or marital status. We will welcome you if you are a staunch Catholic or do not like organized religion. We will not judge you based upon your personal history, age, race, ethnic background, appearance, sexual orientation or gender identity. We welcome children, even when they act like children. If there is no crying, our Parish is dying! We are all on a spiritual journey, trying to find our way. All are welcome to join us on our spiritual journey at St. Edith.

Volunteer Opportunity of the Month

Family Life Group 

Have you wondered who is responsible for organizing and putting on family events here at St. Edith? Events like the Fall Event/Trunk or Treat are done by a small group of volunteers called, "Family Life." Additionally, we host making Advent Wreaths in November; the annual Children's Nativity Pageant in December; a Family Service opportunity in February and collaborating with the Knights of Columbus for the Easter Egg Hunt/Bunny Lunch in April. Many hands make light work, and we need more hands! Please consider joining this group of wonderful people so that we may continue to offer family-based events at St. Edith! Call Linda at 734-469-2965 to volunteer!

CSA - Catholic Service Appeal

This year’s Catholic Services Appeal theme comes from the motto of Archbishop Vigneron, which he adopted from the Letter to the Hebrews:

“Let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that
clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on
Jesus, the leader and perfecter of faith.”

It is this steadfast focus on Jesus that gives us the strength and courage to go about the work of sharing our love of Jesus Christ with others. 

Through the Catholic Services Appeal (CSA), more than one hundred services, programs and ministries provide real and tangible evidence of the power of faith to our community in southeast Michigan. Your gift makes that evidence known to countless individuals and families. 

With your own eyes fixed on Jesus, share the power of faith with countless individuals by making a gift today at: https://givecsa.org. 

We are asking all Parishioners to prayerfully consider contributing to this year’s Catholic Services Appeal. If we all give, we will easily meet St. Edith’s 2024 CSA target of $151,319, which is our Parish’s share of the support of more than 100 CSA funded ministries, programs and services. Any gifts we receive over our target will be returned to our Parish in full. If, however, we do not meet this target, we will have to make up the shortfall from our General Fund. 

Thank you for your generous CSA support in the past and for  your prayerful consideration for CSA 2024. Please watch the mail for a letter from Fr. Jim that was mailed this past week regarding CSA and also look for further updates in future bulletins.
