Offer a Mass

How do I have a Mass offered for my selected Bishop?

There are a few simple ways to have a Mass offered for the Bishop for whom you pledge to pray. A donation/stipend is customary for having a Mass offered (typically around $10).

• Go to (or call) any Catholic parish office and request that a Mass be celebrated for your selected Bishop. They will record the name of your selected Bishop in their Mass register and the date if you request a specific day/Mass time (if available).
• There are a number of Catholic religious orders and parishes online that allow you to request a Mass online or contact them through a phone call. A few suggestions are:
  • Holy Spirit Adoration Sisters: https://adorationsisters.org/prayer-requests/request-a-mass-card/
  • Marians of the Immaculate Conception: https://www.marian.org/mass/
  • Dominican nuns, Corpus Christi Monastery : https://www.opnunsmenlo.org/masses-and-venite-adoremus-association/
