Sacramental Record Request

Please request sacramental records through the Parish Office by calling directly, or emailing admin@stmatthewdetroit.com.

Per Archdiocesan policy, while every individual has a right to a certificate of his or her own sacramental record, no one, with the exception of a parent or guardian asking for the record of a minor child, has the right to another person’s record.

If someone has power of attorney for another adult, he or she may request a certificate, but must show the parish personnel the power of attorney before the certificate is prepared.

The only other valid requests would be from another Catholic parish for sacramental reasons or from a Catholic tribunal for annulment reasons. No one else may receive a copy of sacramental certificate.
