First Saturday Memorials

• What is a “first Saturday memorial”?

A Memorial is a special offering made by the parishioners of St. Patrick Catholic Church, where your intentions are remembered at a Mass.   This Mass is celebrated each first Saturday throughout the year.  The members of the Memorial are printed monthly in our Parish Sunday Bulletin.

• Is there a requested offering?

Based on the current Mass stipend, the Parish requests a yearly donation of $120.00 for the intentions to be remembered at this monthly Mass.   Everyone is welcome to attend this Mass.

• Listing my intentions:

Please list your intentions as one individual name such as John Doe or you may list family groupings such as The Smith Family or the Smith-Jones Family.  If the intention is for John and Jane Doe, that would be considered two intentions and will be listed separately on two lines as John Doe and Jane Doe.  If two intentions are submitted two applications will need to be filled out.

• When do Masses begin?

The Masses will begin for the new year in December.  The “intention year” will be from December to December.  If you wish to continue having your intentions remembered at these Masses, please renew with the requested offering.
