Returning Catholics

Come Home to the Catholic Church

If you’ve been away from the church for 1 or 60 years, you are 100% welcome at Good Shepherd Parish.

Come to Mass

Come join us on Sunday, come back to The Mass! Check out our Mass times and come join us on Sundays.
 

Know you are not alone

As well, find encouragement in the fact that you are not alone on
your journey back home to the Catholic Church. Take time to listen to
the testimonies of other Catholics who have been in your shoes.
 

Go to Confession

Experience God’s Mercy

Perhaps you are weighed down by the troubles in your life that have occurred while you were outside the Church. Whether you have been away from the Church for fifteen years or forty three years, our Lord wants to free you of that burden and offer healing through the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

If you have been away from the Church for many years it would be best to make an appointment for confession. Within the sacrament of confession, this would allow for a chance for spiritual direction. You can call us here at the parish at 810-639-7600 to set up this appointment.

Watch testimonials of those who have returned to the Catholic Church after having been away for many years…

You Have Questions? We Have Answers…

I have been away from the Catholic Church. Can I come back home?
I have been divorced. Am I still welcome in the Catholic Church?
I'm not Catholic. How can I learn more?
