Mass Intentions (2023 is fully booked; 2024 bookings will open sometime in August 2023) : Mass intentions are available for both weekday & weekend Masses. In addition, we also have Mass intentions available for Holy Day Masses. Remember that Mass intentions can be for the living or deceased. OLPH Memorial Society: For a minimum donation of $15 someone is enrolled into the Memorial Society. The 9:00 AM Mass every first Friday is for “All Those Enrolled in the OLPH Memorial Society” Those who are enrolled into the society receive a special Memorial enrollment card with padded folder. Additional Memorials Available: I know that at this time someone can have the sanctuary candle in the church and the chapel burn in memory of someone or for a specific intention. I would like to expand the memorials to include the following: Altar Bread, Altar Wine, Chapel Floral Arrangement (live), Church Floral Arrangement (live). More details about the minimum donation for each of these items in the near future. Again you would receive a card to give to the family indicating that the Altar Bread (wine, arrangement etc.) for the week of __/__/__ was given in memory of (or for the intention of) XXX by XXX. These memorials can be for the living or deceased. Yours in Christ, Rev. James E. Goerner |
The Flame of Love Holy HourThe Flame of Love (FOL) is Jesus Himself, who desires to empower faithful souls to combat the evils of sin, lukewarmness, and indifference.
