Mass Intentions

The offering of Mass intentions is a meaningful way for the faithful to pray for the living and the deceased. When a Mass is offered for a particular intention, the whole Church joins in prayer, asking God to grant grace, healing and peace according to His will.

What Is a Mass Intention?

A Mass intention is a specific prayer request offered during the celebration of the Holy Mass. Intentions may be requested:

In memory of a deceased loved one.
In honor of a special occasion.
For the health and well-being of someone who is ill.
In thanksgiving for blessings received.
For special needs or intentions.

Guidelines for Mass Intentions

Due to the huge volume of requests, Mass Intentions are limited to:

A maximum of two intentions per individual per month, and these intentions cannot be scheduled in the same week.
A maximum of two weekend Masses per individual per year.

Requesting a Mass Intention

Mass Intention requests are accepted throughout the year and are honored on a first-come, first-serve basis—scheduled upon availability. Parishioners may request Mass Intentions by contacting Amanda Marx at marxa@svdpomaha.org or 402-496-7988.

We request a customary offering of $10 per Mass Intention. Mass Intentions will be confirmed upon receive of payment. Payment can be made via cash or check.
