Two Divine Child sports head to states, while girls basketball teams face off during districts.
It's a big week in sports for Divine Child. This weekend, players from three of their teams are heading to state finals in their respective sports: individual girls bowlers, individual boys bowlers and the team, as well as the competitive cheer squad.

In just five years, they’ve raised $62,000 for the two organizations through their annual Bowl-4-Animal Rescue fundraiser, zeroing in on Dearborn because it was recommended by their own veterinarian, Dr. Cheryl Good of Dearborn Family Pet Care.
