Mass Intentions
Mass Intentions
We invite all parish families to offer Mass intentions for 2027 starting Sunday, November 1. Remembering loved ones and lifting up special intentions at the Eucharistic table is a beautiful tradition of our faith, and we welcome your requests. For accounting purposes, please pay Mass stipends at the time Masses are requested; they cannot be paid after scheduling or combined with offertory checks. Please see our updated policy below for guidance on the request process.
- Each family may request up to 10 Mass intentions per calendar year.
- You may schedule the same intention up to 10 times per year, including 3 weekend masses. Extras will go to the Diocese.
- Mass intention requests may be made up to a year ahead of time.
- Mass intentions must be paid at the time of the request, or they will not be scheduled. Please do not put money for Mass intentions in the offertory basket or send in a check that includes offertory donations. They are separate accounts and need to be kept separate per the Diocese.
- Requested dates and times are not guaranteed, but we do our best to honor them. If your preferred date is unavailable, we invite you to hold your intention in prayer on that day.
- A minimum $10 honorarium per Mass is requested, as determined by the Diocese, to support the priest celebrating the Mass.
- If all parish Masses are filled, we will send the remaining intentions to the Diocese for celebration by retired priests.
- If a Mass must be rescheduled due to unforeseen circumstances, the Parish Office will contact you.
Please see Kristina to schedule.
