​Rev. Dr. Michael Woroniewicz (Father Mike) is a Priest in Solidum and Moderator of the Three Rivers Family of Parishes. He came to Divine Grace after serving as Rector of SS. Cyril and Methodius Seminary in Orchard Lake, Michigan, where he had been an adjunct professor of preaching and liturgy since 2006. Fr. Mike has served as pastor of St. Gabriel Catholic Parish in Ida/Dundee, and is currently the vicar for the Monroe Vicariate. Ordained in 1985, Father Mike has earned a Master of Divinity degree from St. John Provincial Seminary, a Master of Arts degree in Liturgy from the University of Notre Dame, and a Doctor of Ministry in Preaching degree from Aquinas Institute of Theology. Fr. Mike is dedicated to good preaching and liturgy, as the Sunday Eucharist is the summit and source of our life as Catholic Christians.
​
Rev. Mr. Tracy M. Esper (Deacon Tracy) was ordained a permanent deacon for the Archdiocese of Detroit in October 2017. Before his assignment at Divine Grace, he served at St. Michael the Archangel in Monroe.

Receiving the Sacraments

Baptism

Families wishing to baptize their children at Divine Grace need to connect with the parish office at least one month before the desired date. Before Baptism, you must participate in a Baptism Preparation Workshop, and you must be a registered member of the parish. Families may choose to schedule a Baptism within Mass, performed by Fr. Mike, or outside of Mass. Please contact the parish office to schedule a baptism during Mass.

Deacon Tracy performs baptism outside of Mass on the second Sunday of each month following the 11 am Mass in Carleton. Baptism preparation with Deacon Tracy generally takes place on Thursday at 7 pm, before the baptism on the following Sunday. If you have already attended a Baptism Prep session, you do not have to attend again.
