It is the ancient tradition of the Church that priests may apply the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for a particular intention of the faithful and receive an offering for doing so. The intentions are usually for the sick, the faithful departed, or in gratitude for some blessing received. On Sundays and Holy Days (Solemnities), at least one parish Mass must be offered pro populo – that is, for the intentions of all the people of the parish.

If you would like a Mass offered for a special intention, please contact the parish office (email; 843.702.6162) to schedule the Mass. In the Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter (for Corpus Christi), the suggested donation for a Mass is $10.
