Mass Intentions & Lamps for 2025

The Mass Intention Book and Sanctuary Lamp openings for 2025 will be available beginning 
Thursday,  October 3 at 9:00 a.m. in the Gym/Social Center at 695 College Avenue.

The directive issued from the Archdiocese per canon law limits Mass intentions to one per Mass, with the exception of our 4:00 p.m. Mass (2 intentions) and 9:30 a.m. Mass (2 intentions).  *Mass stipends were also increased this year to $20/Mass by the Bishops of the Wisconsin Province, effective July 1, 2024.

Please limit your requests to 3 weekend intentions and 3 weekday intentions to start. The Sanctuary Lamp at Marquette Avenue is limited to 1 intention per family request.  The Sanctuary Lamp and Mother of Perpetual Help Lamp at the Four Saints Chapel at College Avenue are limited to 2 requests each.    
Please come prepared with dates and alternative backups if your chosen date is full.  Mass request sheets are available at the parish office and is available to download for your convenience and advance preparation. Allowances for more weekday Masses and Chapel lamps may be made after March 1st to allow everyone a fair opportunity to make requests.  

There will be no individual intentions accepted for Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas Eve or Christmas Day; on these days, we will pray for all our departed brothers and sisters.

The customary offering is $20 per Mass intention.

$10 (2 weeks) Marquette Ave Sanctuary Lamp

$5 (1 week) College Ave 
Sanctuary Lamp

$5 (1 week) 
Mother of Perpetual Help Lamp

If you would like to offer more Mass intentions outside of the six allowed, we can send those to the Archdiocese of Milwaukee retired priests and/or missionary priests. The money offered will go towards their stipend and your date will be honored.  

We will do our best to honor your wishes, but due to the restrictions placed on us, as well as the number of requests we receive, please be understanding if a particular date is full.  Be assured that God still hears your prayers for your loved ones and knows the intentions of your heart.
