Mass intentions are available at all of our workship sites by contacting the Central Office at 716.822.5952.
We will no longer be able to have two intentions for one Mass at our churches. This policy is based upon Canon Law. For the past several years, we have been allowed to have multiple intentions because of the closing of St. Thomas Aquinas and merging of parishes. However, we must now adhere to the rules set forth by the Church. We understand that this is a significant issue for those wishing to remember their loved ones at Mass because the number of Masses offered each week is limited. If you wish to schedule a Mass for a specific date, you may have to choose a different church than usual or a date close to the one you desire. We will announce in the bulletin when the scheduling of Masses for 2027 will begin. We would suggest re- questing specific Mass dates early so as not to be disappointed. Also, in 2027, each requester will be limited to four (4) weekend Masses so that everyone has the opportunity to schedule a Mass on a Saturday or Sunday. There will be no limit on the number of weekday Masses that can be requested. The stipend for a Mass remains $15.
We would also like to remind our parishioners that another option for remembering a loved one is by lighting the sanctuary lamp in honor or memory of someone special. Sanctuary lamp remembrances can be obtained at any of our parish churches. The stipend for a sanctuary lamp is $20.
