A Vicariate is a group of parishes within an Archdiocese, defined by geographic area for the purposes of administration. To view/print a map defining the Central Macomb Vicariate area, please see below.
The Archdiocese of Detroit's 225 parishes are sectioned into 4 Regions- Central, Northeast, Northwest and South- that have 4 Vicariates apiece. See below for a printer friendly map which details the Region & Vicariate boundaries.
Each Region is guided by one of the AOD's 4 Auxiliary Bishops. Central Macomb Vicariate is located in the Northeast Region. Our Regional Moderator is Bishop Robert Fisher.
