During the 40 days before Easter known as Lent, we are called to focus on our relationship with God. Catholics do three things to grow closer to God during Lent: PRAY, FAST and GIVE ALMS to those in need. Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving are the three pillars of Lenten spirituality. Click for information on these Lenten practices.

April 9, 7:00-9:00 p.m. at St. Daniel. Adoration; praise and worship music; reflection by Fr. Jason Brooks, LC; ministry prayer teams available for personal prayer.

This historic parish in downtown Pontiac is a beacon of hope for those most in need, providing for their spiritual and material needs. In January, after much patching and repairing, their heating system died and must be replaced. The cost, over $230,000, is out of reach. They have been able to reduce some costs by having volunteers demolish and remove the system. As brothers and sisters in Christ, we can help parishioners to be warm once again through our Five Weeks of (Lenten) Giving. Click to find out how!

Will be offered the Fridays of Lent. At 9:30 AM: Fr. Craig will lead the Stations immediately after Daily Mass. At 7:00 PM: Various parish groups will lead the evening Stations. You can check the calendar for which group will be leading which day (click to be directed to the calendar).

Help us fill 5,000 Easter eggs and create Easter treat bags for children's charities. Items needed: egg-sized candy; hard candy; chocolates; gum; snack packs; small toys; crayons/markers; coloring books; fidget toys; decks of cards; stuffed animals. Please place all donations in the collection basket located in the church gathering area by April 6. Thank you!

As such, donation checks should be made payable directly to the specific group, NOT St. Daniel Parish. If you ever have a question about how to make your check payable, reach out the Parish Office at 248-625-4580!
