MASS MEMORIALS

What is a Mass Memorial?

One of the greatest acts of charity is to pray for the living and the dead.  The greatest, most powerful prayer we have is the Mass.  For that reason, all are encouraged to have Mass offered for loved ones who have died or for the living who have some special need or celebration.                            (Information provided by St. Helena Cathedral - used with permission)

When are Mass Memorials Printed?

Mass Memorials are included in our bulletin (as an insert) the first weekend Mass each month.  The monthly listing is also posted in our commons.  Individuals and/or families who are on our monthly list are remembered during the Prayers of the Faithful at each Mass during the month.

It is important that you make your request as soon as possible to be included on the list.  For example, if you want your loved ones remembered during all Masses the month of December, you must make your request and payment in the beginning of the last week of November.
