Faith
Jesus Christ, the Reason for Catholic Central.
More than just a few words greeting visitors in the main entrance of our building, Catholic Central places Jesus Christ at the center of everything. Students are encouraged to build a relationship with Jesus through our deep theology curriculum, attending spiritual retreats such as Kairos, and by giving back to the Metro-Detroit area through community service.
Basilian Built
The Basilian virtues of goodness, discipline, and knowledge permeate every aspect of student life at Catholic Central. They are at the center of every activity, be it academic, athletic, or social.
Serving Others
As a school community, we witness to the Word of God by putting our faith into action. Our hope is to promote service learning that is transformative for the student, emphasizing quality of service and reflection.
Becoming Catholic
The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA)
offers a meaningful path for students at Catholic Central who wish to deepen their faith and become fully initiated members of the Catholic Church.
Faith Enrichment
More than simply guiding Shamrocks to have successful careers, it is our responsibility and our blessing to lead them to eternal life. By making the sacraments and other faith enrichment opportunities easily accessible throughout the school day, Catholic Central shows students they do not need to sacrifice their faith life in the pursuit of academic or athletic excellence.
Shamrock I.D.
Shamrock I.D. (Intentional Disciple) is a small faith group, where young men can delve further into their faith, their struggles in our over-secularized world, and share each other’s triumphs.
Each small group is mentored by a Catholic Central faculty member and focuses on a tenet of our faith and how we can all become better disciples, fathers, sons, and carry that into our future vocations.
