St. Raymond - Our Lady of Good Counsel

About Us

A Catholic Church with a faithfilled purpose and message!

A welcoming, diversed community of people in the northeast part of Detroit. Come visit us and become a member of a vibrant faith filled Church. Among other things, the Church has a very strong out-reach program to the community, making available to our neighbors many services.

The Church merged with Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish in June of 2011. We are now a new combined Church.

After the Sunday service we have a donut/coffee/juice gathering in the Church for everyone to gather and continue the celebration.

We are a very open and caring Church. Excepting everyone, not matter what. For we are all God's children. Our members care for each other and support one another in times of need.

What if I'm not a Christian?
All faiths are welcome to experience the Catholic Mass. It is a beautiful and moving celebration of thanksgiving of God's love for us shared through his Life, Death, and Resurrection!
