Upcoming 2024 Adult Faith Formation Events

Book Study on A White Catholic’s Guide to Racism and Privilege

Starts February 21st, 2024 through March 20th, 2024

Meets Wednesdays at 7 PM

Are you interested in building your awareness of racism? Do you believe that we as Catholics have a role in working for racial justice? If so, join us for a small group book study of Fr. Daniel P Horan’s, A White Catholic’s Guide to Racism and Privilege.

Through prayerful reflection and discussion, we will explore racism in ourselves, our church and our society, as well as how to respond in faith.
Sessions will be held at St. Blase Church on Wednesday evenings at 7pm starting February 21st and running through March 20th, 2024. You will be responsible for getting your own copy of the book.
If you have any questions or are ready to sign-up, please contact the Parish Office (586) 268-2244 or click here to sign up online

Sacraments: History, Theology and Practice – October 2023 – May 2024

Back by popular demand, Dr. Mary Dumm will teach an eight week class on the sacraments of the Catholic Church! We celebrate the Sacraments every week. We celebrate them at special, God-arranged times in our lives. But, what do they mean? Where do we find them in the Scriptures? How can we more deeply enter into these sacred mysteries?

Please register by contacting the Parish Office or at stblase.org.

Part One (John 1-10) covers the magnificent prologue of John’s Gospel and a significant portion of Jesus’ ministry,” (Liturgical Press). “Part Two (John 11-21) begins with the final ‘sign’ of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead and takes readers to the hour of Jesus’ glorification in his passion, death, and resurrection,” (Liturgical Press).

Meeting Dates:

Part One: COMPLETED

Part Two: February 12, 19, 26, March 4, 11, 18, 2024

Adult Scripture Study

Sunday Scripture Insights takes place every Wednesday from 10:30-Noon. This study is lectionary-based; each session focuses on the readings for the coming Sunday. No registration is necessary. As Catholics, we study the Bible to foster…
-A fuller understand of Scripture
​-A richer appreciation of the faith tradition of the Church
-A deeper, more personal relationship with God
-A strong sense of family, faith and prayer
-And a fuller experience of Christian Community



Catechist Formation Topics

The response to the call to be a catechist includes a willingness to give time and talent not only to catechizing others, but also to one’s own continued growth in faith, understanding, and skills. Catechist formation topics provide the catechist with the basic foundation for ministry through the study of topics in the areas of Scripture, theology, sacraments, and learning methodology. Catechist certification topics are offered at St. Blase at various times. These opportunities for formation and education are not just limited to catechists; all adults are welcome! More information about upcoming workshops can be found on the Becoming A Certified Catechist Page.

Women’s Friendship Breakfast

These events provide adults with a morning of fellowship, song and prayer featuring a special guest speaker who addresses issues faced by adult Christian men and women. Each event includes a catered breakfast.
