The Church considers the Mass the greatest possible prayer of intercession because it is the perfect offering of Christ to the Father by making present the Paschal Mystery of His death and resurrection.

It is a longstanding tradition in the Church that a Priest may be requested to offer a Mass for a specific intention, even when one cannot be physically present at the Mass. We are blessed to have such a prayerful community that at the moment, requests for Mass intentions are being scheduled for January 2023 and beyond. We will try to accommodate a specific date in mind, but some Mass times are no longer available for assignment.

Please fill out the Mass Request Form below in its entirety and then visit our Donate page to pay the $5 per Mass stipend. This stipend is offered to the presiding priest. Of course, you may make an additional donation if you are moved. Any additional contribution is given to support the St. Jude Chapel ministry. Mass requests are scheduled once the $5 per Mass is received.  

For more information about including your intentions during Mass, please contact Mary Lou at 214.742.2508.
