On Thursday, Sept. 3, Archbishop Weisenburger celebrated Mass at Most Holy Redeemer Parish in southwest Detroit with Catholic high school students from across in the Archdiocese of Detroit in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Catholic High School League. For 100 years, the Catholic High School League has helped young people grow in faith and character both on and off the field. May God bless all the students, coaches, teachers, and families who built this legacy and are carrying it forward into the next century.

On Sunday, Aug. 30, Archbishop Weisenburger, Bishop Fisher and Bishop Monforton met with the four permanent deacon candidates and their wives for the Archdiocese of Detroit, who will be ordained Oct. 3. The four candidates, Kurt Krueger (Mary), Jeff Ostrowski (Erin), Ron Potempski (Marie) and Jim Pryce (Denise), made their oaths of allegiance.

On Sunday, Aug. 30, Archbishop Weisenburger celebrated the 75th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi Church in Ray Township, which today is part of St. Francis of Assisi-St. Maximilian Kolbe Parish. The Mass was celebrated in both English and Spanish for the bilingual community. The parish anniversary falls during the Jubilee Year of St. Francis (Jan. 10, 2026-Jan. 10, 2027), which Pope Leo XIV proclaimed to mark the 800th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi's death.

From Aug. 26 to Aug. 28, Archbishop Weisenburger spent time with his brother bishops from Michigan and Ohio during the annual Region VI bishops retreat, which this year took place in Toledo, Ohio. The annual retreat, which includes two days of fraternity, is "an important time for us to deepen our relationships, which facilitate our working together for the well-being of the churches," Archbishop Weisenburger said.

On Sunday, Aug. 23, Archbishop Weisenburger joined St. Patrick Parish in White Lake for the 60th anniversary celebration of the church building. Following Mass, the archbishop joined countless parishioners, young and old, for an outdoor parish picnic. Many of the parish's clergy — both current and former — were in attendance, including Fr. Manuel Fernandes, SAC, Fr. Joe Kirkconnell, Fr. Socorro Fernandes, SAC, and Fr. Paul Graney.
