Guidelines for 2022 Scheduled Mass Intentions

The 2022 book is now open. We will accept scheduled Mass Intention forms starting at 9:00 AM on Monday, October 4^th. This calendar year, our Mass Intention book was full In July for the remainder of the year. To try and prevent this from happening during 2022, we have made several changes to the request for scheduled Mass Intention process and ask for your help in following these new procedures.
 
Each family has a limit of 12 Scheduled Mass Intentions per year. Any scheduled Mass Intentions that you request throughout the year, will be counted towards these 12. If you request 12 scheduled Mass Intentions on October 4^th for 2022, you have met your limit for 2022. We will not be able to schedule anymore Mass Intentions for you during 2022. In addition, each family will only be able to schedule up to three Mass Intentions for any given Saturday/Sunday Mass for the year. For example, you may only schedule three Mass Intentions for the Sunday, 4:30 Mass for 2022. The remainder of your scheduled Mass Intentions should be for another Mass, either on a Saturday/Sunday or a weekday.
 
When filling out your scheduled Mass Intention form, please include the preferred date and an alternate date for each request. Please make a copy of your requested 2022 scheduled Mass Intentions, as you will only be contacted if one of your date(s) is not available. Calls or emails will not be made confirming your selection of Scheduled Masses, if there is no conflict.
 
You may submit your scheduled Mass Intention form electronically, the preferred method, in-person or through the mail. The Electronic Mass Intention Form may be found on the website at https://maryqueencatholicchurch.org/mass-intentions (home page, under Home on dropdown menu) and the form and stipend will be submitted electronically. You may also drop off your scheduled Mass Intention form with payment at the Reception Desk in the Parish Hall. Forms may be found on our website at the above address or you may request one from the Parish receptionist during business hours. Checks should be made out to Mary Queen Catholic Church. Cash is also accepted. The suggested Mass Intention stipend is $5 per Mass for either a scheduled or unscheduled Mass Intention.
 
If you have used up all 12 of your Scheduled Mass Intentions during 2022, we have several options for a Mass Intention. You may request an unscheduled Mass Intention, which is not published in the bulletin or said aloud during Mass. This must be done in person, at the office, during business hours. Only cash is accepted for an unscheduled Mass Intention. Another option is to request a Mass through the La Salette Missionary Association. These Masses are offered by the Missionaries of La Salette around the world. Information and cards are available at the receptionist desk during business hours.
 
Any questions about Mass Intentions, should be directed to Anita Shorosky at the Parish office.
