St Basil the Great Catholic Church

What St Basil the Great Catholic Church does

St Basil the Great Catholic Church is a parish church operating under the Archdiocese of Detroit, located at 22851 Lexington Ave., Eastpointe, Michigan. Its stated mission is the salvation of souls through the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and it delivers that mission through the Seven Sacraments (Baptism, Holy Eucharist, Confirmation, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Matrimony, Holy Orders), daily and Sunday Mass in English and Latin (including a Latin Novus Ordo Mass on Tuesday evenings), Eucharistic Adoration, Confession, and a faith formation curriculum for children and adults.

The parish is staffed by approximately 8 employees and clergy, including Pastor Rev. Eric Fedewa, a Director of Religious Education, a Director of OCIA, a Music minister, an Office Administrator/Bulletin Editor, a Bookkeeper, and a Maintenance staff member. Service delivery is supplemented by volunteer-led ministries such as St. Vincent de Paul, the Ladies Guild, the Confraternity for Holy Souls St. Basil Chapter, the Contemplative Rosary Group, the San Lorenzo Ruiz Prayer Group, the St. Carlo Acutis Group, the Ushers Club, and liturgical teams (Altar Boys, Lectors, Choir, Ushers).

The business model is donation-based rather than fee-for-service. Revenue consists of voluntary parish tithes and offerings, collected in person and online through ParishSoft (allowing automatic payments from checking accounts or credit cards), with supplemental passive income via the Kroger Community Rewards program (ID LJ394). The parish operates a Jimdo-built website and a Facebook page, distributes FORMED.org and Ascension Press digital content for faith formation, and participates in Detroit Catholic media coverage. The parish is currently engaged in the Archdiocese of Detroit's restructuring consultation as part of Planning Area 11, with parishioner feedback accepted through July 31, 2026.
