Being a Disciple During a Pandemic

In this unusual time of difficulty, God’s grace is present as we live the Lent that God the Father wants us to have. Christians throughout history have lived through various times of trial and crisis, and have responded to God’s grace in their time. Join us for a special live event with Fr. Steve Pullis, Archdiocese of Detroit Director of Evangelization and Missionary Discipleship, as he discusses how we can be a disciple during a pandemic, sharing his thoughts and experience, and drawing on the new guideposts for this time offered by Archbishop Vigneron.
