St. Damien of Molokai Parish

About this church

St. Damien of Molokai Parish serves Pontiac through two worship sites, so the location beside each Mass time is essential. The directory address, 46408 Woodward Avenue, is St. Vincent de Paul Church. There, Mass is celebrated Saturday at 4 p.m.; Sunday at 8:30 a.m. in Spanish, 10:30 a.m. in English, and 7 p.m. in Spanish; and weekdays at noon. The parish's noon Sunday Spanish Mass is instead at St. Michael Church, 120 Lewis Street. Confession is offered at St. Vincent from 11:15 to 11:45 a.m. Monday through Friday and 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Friday.

The current parish was formed in 2009 from three Pontiac Catholic communities, and its shared identity explains why one parish schedule names multiple buildings. Faith formation spans children, teenagers, adults, and people preparing for sacraments or entry into the Catholic Church. Molokai Youth gives high-school students a dedicated community, while liturgical and service ministries provide roles in parish life. Friday Eucharistic Adoration is published for 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. outside Lent, and a perpetual-adoration chapel offers another setting for prayer. For a first visit to the listed Woodward Avenue church, the 10:30 Sunday Mass is the clearest English-language option. Spanish-speaking visitors have morning and evening choices there, but should not follow the noon time to Woodward because that liturgy belongs to the Lewis Street site.
