At St. Catherine of Siena Parish, there are many requests for scheduling Mass Intentions. The following policies are used to accommodate the numerous Mass requests in a reasonable and fair manner:
If you would like to have a Mass said for someone please contact Melanie Cabrera Ciprian in the parish office at 919-570-0070. With high volume of Mass Intentions requests, please call ahead of your visit to see what dates and times are available. Mass Cards are then given to you for mailing to family members if you choose. Mass Intentions are published weekly in the Sunday bulletin. Mass Intentions are a personal donation, but the customary amount is $10. This signifies the sacrificial nature of giving of something of yourself to associate more intimately with Christ who offers himself in the Eucharist.
In order to give the opportunity for all parishioners to schedule a Mass Intention for their loved ones and to accommodate recently deceased individuals, the Mass Intention book will open for 1 month at a time. We will not schedule a Mass Intention unless the book is open for those dates. Due to the limited availability of Masses, one Mass request per month is allowed per person/family. Requests will be honored on a first-come, first-serve basis in the order in which the request is received. Please read our intention schedule below or call the parish office for additional information.
The Mass Intention schedule is as follows:
On January 1st (or the 1st day parish office is open), we will open Mass Intentions for the month of March.
On February 1st (or the 1st day parish office is open), we will open Mass Intentions for the month of April.
And so forth for each month thereafter.
