Celebrate the Feast of St. Phoebe on Sept. 3

Celebrate the Feast of St. Phoebe on Sept. 3

University Ministry is hosting a special Mass to celebrate the feast day of St. Phoebe. Gather with us for Mass and fellowship with snacks following the service on Tuesday, Sept. 3 at 12:45 p.m. in the St. Ignatius Chapel.

All are welcome!

In the Letter to the Romans, St. Paul commends Phoebe to the church in Rome, introduces her as a deacon (diakonos) of the church at Cenchreae, and asks that they “receive her in the Lord” (Romans 16:1-2a).

Join us as we come together with Catholic communities in celebrating St. Phoebe during the month of September while honoring women’s gifts to the Church in the lead-up to the General Assembly of the Synod.

St. Phoebe Day scheduled for Sept. 3 at 12:45 p.m. in St. Ignatius Chapel. Join us for mass and fellowship. Icon of Discerning Deacons and Detroit Mercy University Ministry at the bottom.
