Mass is always offered for the Glory of God and for the good of all his people, living and dead. The custom of making an offering for the Mass – originally the bread and wine used at the Mass and sufficient to maintain the Priest for the day on which the Mass was Offered, is a praiseworthy means of bringing a particular Intention before the prayer of the whole Community. These are the particular Intentions which are listed in the weekly Bulletin alongside the times of the daily Masses.
When a request is made for Mass to be Offered on a particular day or in one particular church we always do the best we can to respect the request; however there are times when the requested time has already been ‘booked’ - or indeed there is not Mass on that particular Day in the church requested.
When you fill in a ‘Mass Intention’ Envelope, please include your telephone number so that we can contact you if your original request cannot be fulfilled.
Thank you.
