The historic Mariners’ Church of Detroit will still hold its annual springtime “Blessing of the Fleet,” albeit with a few changes to ensure safety during the continuing pandemic.
The tradition dates back more than 50 years and is considered by local boaters to signal the start of a new season. The event includes blessing boat flags and honoring the names of people who died in Michigan’s waterways during the previous year.
