Archbishop Weisenburger is inviting every Catholic in southeast Michigan to join in a two-year process of archdiocesan restructuring, reimagining parish life, priestly ministry, and our mission to build something vibrant, sustainable, and full of hope.
Our work together will be guided by three key pillars:
- Vibrant parishes: We want every parish to be a living heartbeat of faith, where people encounter Christ, grow in discipleship, and build real community.
- Flourishing priests: Our priests are at the heart of parish life. They must be supported and free to focus on what they do best: preaching the Gospel, celebrating the Sacraments, and caring for the faithful.
- Mission ready: By realigning our clergy and financial resources wisely, we will bring the joy of Christ to the next generation with energy and purpose. We will hand the next generation a Church that is vibrant, thriving, and alive in every way.
In the spring of 2026, each parish will host two listening sessions open to all the faithful. Every voice matters, just as every prayer matters. Visit restructuring.aod.org to learn more and get involved.
