Welcome to our St. Cornelius Parish community. Our community encompasses the counties of Lapeer and Macomb, Michigan. We are part of the Thumb Vicariate in the North West region of the Catholic Archdiocese of Detroit. In July of 2022, we joined together in a new Family of Parishes with three neighboring Catholic communities, and we are diligently working together to become a true family of joyful missionary disciples. We strive to make everyone feel welcome. We hope your time with us is a joyful and Holy Spirit-filled experience.

We are here to grow in our faith by our reflection of the New Evangelization. We continue to bolster our mission of living out the Gospel in our everyday lives.

To learn more about our patron Saint, or about the work, mission, and ministries of this church, look through the website and check out our weekly bulletin.

If you can’t find what you’re looking for, give us a call. We’d be happy to help you.
