This sounds so lovely that I wanted to pass it along. Unfortunately, I can’t be there - but if you’re in the mid-Michigan area, do make an effort at some point to get to Detroit and at least visit these churches, if you cannot attend Mass at them. St. Joseph’s is completely untouched, no wreckovation, and no Novus table to be seen anywhere; it’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places. St. Josaphat’s, a very short distance (by car) away, is the location of the regular weekly Tridentine. So this is also a nice announcement because, at least on this one Sunday, there will be a wealth of old rite Masses (relatively speaking) in downtown Detroit. (I wonder if there is any particular occasion for this event?) This is a wonderful thing for an archdiocese that, at least in the past, wasn’t favorable to the old Mass - and, in general, the bishops in the whole of the state haven’t been too supportive.
