Join us as we commemorate the life and legacy of Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. With Mass, choirs, and following dinner together with both St. Francis Parish and our sister parish, Corpus Christi Catholic Church, Detroit, we will recognize his good efforts and advancement of our Human Rights and Civil Rights as certainly in keeping with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and completely aligned with the themes of Catholic Social Teaching. While he was not a Catholic himself, we celebrate the life and work of Martin Luther King Jr. because he seriously advocated for the life and dignity of all people; the call to community participation and inclusion of all Americans, regardless of their skin color, putting the needs of the poor and vulnerable first; and solidarity in our one human family, regardless of racial, ethnic, economic, and ideological differences.
