Holy Mass is the memorial of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Christ. When Holy Mass is celebrated,
Christ’s redemption becomes reality for each individual person.
A Mass Intention is the celebration of the Most Holy Eucharist for the repose of the
soul of the deceased, for the sick, or for a special anniversary.
Mass intention requests are accepted for available weekday and weekend Masses on a rolling three-month
calendar. As a large Parish, we offer three intentions a year per household/family.
To request a Mass in someone's name:
Step 1- Online Portal: Click on the "New Intention" button. You will be
redirected to MassIntentions.com. Fill out the form.
In the “Requested by” field, provide your first and last name and contact information as it will be important to
verify the Mass details with you.
After you include first and last name in the “Requested by” field, phrases like “Mom” or “His family”
can be added. Once you have completed this section, click “Submit”.
Step 2 – Email verification: Once your request has been
reviewed by the Parish, we will notify you, including sharing next steps regarding Mass cards and
donation offerings.

A Mass Intention is the celebration of the Most Holy Eucharist for the repose of the

the faithful to make an offering and Canon law guides our Church and our Parish in this matter.
-
We are happy to receive your request for a particular time and date. However, that the date and time you
desire may already be taken and, according to Canon Law, a priest may receive one intention per offering at a Mass.
-
Our Catholic faith teaches us that the graces of the Mass are infinite.
Of course you are welcome, indeed you are encouraged, to come to Mass on a particular
date to offer the liturgy privately for your personal intention. The faithful also may
place the name and purpose of their intentions in the blue Book of Prayer made available
at the church every day.
-
It is customary to offer a donation in gratitude for the Mass Intention. Please note: It is
not the price you pay for Mass; therefore, it is entirely up to you to decide the amount of
your gift. With appreciation, donations contribute to the good of the Parish and they support
her works and ministers.
