Are you looking for a new Catholic church where your family can worship and celebrate life events? Finding the right spiritual home is a difficult decision. Whether you’re seeking a parish because you’re new to the city or unhappy with your current one, here are three tips to help you find the right church for your family.
Make a List
The first step is to make a list of all the Catholic Churches in Detroit within the distance that you’re willing to travel. After compiling a list, you can begin to narrow it down. Research each church and remove ones that don’t seem like a good fit.
Attend Mass
Once you have a curated list, it’s time to visit all the Catholic Churches Detroit that made the cut. Attending Mass at a different church each week may be awkward, but experiencing the services for yourself is the best way to choose.
Have a Family Meeting
Now that you have experienced a variety of church services, it’s time to make a decision. Have a family meeting with your spouse and children so that everyone gets a say. It’s important to consider your children’s thoughts and feelings because they will be attending the church for years to come.
If you’re looking for a new church, consider Old St. Mary’s, the third oldest Roman Catholic Church and the first German Church in Detroit.
