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.

Potluck Monthly Meal Ministry

for Wayne Metro

We are starting a new monthly meal ministry to support Wayne Metro. In addition to other services, Wayne Metro has an emergency shelter in River Rouge for out-Wayne County residents. We will assist by providing dinner for 30 guests every 4th Saturday of the month. We will need volunteers to make food and bring side dishes, condiments, etc. Food will be dropped off in the St. Edith kitchen and picked up by Wayne Metro staff. Cold or shelf-stable food can be dropped off in the St. Edith kitchen the Friday before the meal between 9 am - 3 pm or on the Saturday of the meal between 2 pm - 3 pm. It is preferred that hot food please be dropped off the Saturday of the meal between 2 pm - 3 pm. Food will be picked up by Wayne Metro at 3:00 pm on Saturday, so all food must arrive by that time. Please label the food with "Wayne Metro" and your name. Please send all food in disposable pans - no pans/utensils/etc. will be returned. If the item doesn't need refrigeration, please put it in the clear Tupperware bin labelled "Wayne Metro" on the counter near the microwave in the St. Edith kitchen. If the item needs refrigeration, please put it in the bin labelled "Wayne Metro" in the refrigerator (4th door from the left) or if the bin is full, under the "Wayne Metro" sign. Please drop off the food close to the meal date.

Please check out the Sign Up Genius to learn more and to sign up to bring an item or two. Since we are doing this monthly, please double check the date the item is needed. If your family, group, team or business would like to provide an entire meal, please contact Patti. Questions? Contact Patti Kelly at 734-464-1222, ext. 301 or pkelly@stedith.org Thank you!

Please check back often to see what our next monthly meal will be!

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.
