Offering a Mass for a special Intention is a long standing tradition in the Catholic Church. It is usually considered that special graces are obtained for whom the Mass is said. Masses are offered for many reasons, for the souls in purgatory, in remembrance for someone who is deceased, or in honor of a birthday. If you would like to have a Mass said for someone, contact the Parish Office. The office staff will inform you of available dates and times.
The stipend or offering given, signifies the sacrificial nature of giving of something of yourself to associate more intimately with Christ who offers himself in the Eucharist. The traditional offering to have a mass said is $5.00. To have a Mass offered, contact the parish office, mail the request to the church, or place it in the collection basket at mass. Mass cards and envelopes are available in the church in the vestibule and campanile.
