Detroit
Catholic
online
news
service
DETROIT
- The
Archdiocese
of
Detroit
today
has
launched
a
digital
news
service
designed
to
broaden
its
storytelling
reach
and to
provide
engaging
and
timely
news
coverage
of its
local
missionary
activities.
Detroit
Catholic
offers
readers
daily,
multimedia
coverage
of
parishes,
schools
and the
many
life-giving
ministries
throughout
the
archdiocese.
In
addition,
readers
have
access
to
national
and
global
articles
about
the
Church,
and can
sign up
to
receive
news
summaries
via
email
each
weekday,
week or
month.
“Our
Archdiocese
is
responding
to God’s
clear
call for
us to
unleash
the
Gospel
in
southeast
Michigan
and
beyond,”
said
Archbishop
of
Detroit
Allen H.
Vigneron.
“With
Detroit
Catholic,
our
prayer
is to
expand
upon our
efforts
to bring
the Good
News of
Jesus
Christ
to the
faithful
through
stories
that
inspire
and
inform
readers
as they
grow
into
joyful
missionary
disciples.”
The
new
website
(www.detroitcatholic.com)
and
social
media
channels
(@detroitcatholic
on
Twitter,
Facebook
and
Instagram)
are
updated
daily
with
content
from
local
producers,
columnists
and
partners
reporting
on
Catholic
news and
events
both
locally
and
across
the
globe.
It
launches
today
with
dozens
of new
articles,
including
a
profile
of a man
whose
faith
inspired
him to
lose 75
pounds
and run
his
first
marathon
this
year, a
story
about
Detroit
Catholic
Central’s
Rosary-themed
workouts,
and
extensive
wire
coverage
of Pope
Francis.
Detroit
Catholic
represents
the next
chapter
in
storytelling
for the
archdiocese
after
the
closing
of its
bi-weekly
newspaper,
The
Michigan
Catholic
this
summer.
Detroit
Catholic
will
continue
providing
the
award-winning
coverage
and
feature
stories
readers
have
come to
expect,
now with
increased
frequency
and more
in-depth
coverage.
“We’re
very
excited
to
launch
the next
phase of
our
publishing
efforts
in the
Archdiocese
of
Detroit,”
said
Michael
Stechschulte,
editor
of
Detroit
Catholic.
“It is
our hope
that
Detroit
Catholic
continues
and
expands
upon the
tradition
of
excellence
set by
The
Michigan
Catholic
newspaper
by
keeping
Catholic
leaders,
laity
and
faithful
informed
about
the
latest
issues
of the
day and
inspired
to
proclaim
the good
news of
Jesus in
their
hearts,
homes
and
communities.”
