Catholic churches have been around for 2,000 years and still carry the same message of love, redemption, salvation, and hope. If you’ve been away from the Catholic church for a while and want to start attending mass again, there are some great Catholic churches in Detroit. With that in mind, the following are some key benefits of going to a Catholic church on a regular basis.
Easily Fits Your Schedule
Many Detroit churches have multiple services on Sundays and at least once each day during the week and on Saturday. This enables you to attend mass whenever you have some extra time away from work or household responsibilities.
Worship God
God expects Christians to attend church each week. One verse that supports this point is John 1:3, which states, “What we have seen and heard we proclaim to you also, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed, our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ.”
Essential for Spiritual Growth
Going to mass each week is essential for your spiritual growth. It enables you to learn more about God’s expectations and how you should live your life. Attending mass will also get you in the habit of reading the Bible again, which can further enhance your knowledge of Christian living and behavior.
Social Activities
Most Detroit churches have social activities for people of all ages. Some of these activities include Bible studies, youth groups, singles groups, and even sports activities. Finding a group that interests you is one way to meet other Catholics in your neighborhood.
The best thing about attending a church mass each week is it makes you feel better about yourself. That’s because you’re doing something that God wants you to do.
