Masses of Love of Love for the Church in Need

This congregation in Sudan has no church and Mass must be said in the open and shows how much our help is needed there. The priests who serve the people in the Third World urgently need Mass offerings to fulfil their pastoral ministry, for these offerings are practically all they live on. Thus they can fulfil their priestly ministry.

We will send your donation to poor or persecuted priests in Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa or Latin America. They will be happy to offer Mass for your intentions. If you would like to help these priests, please send us the Mass offering that is usual in your diocese or $10.00 if you can afford it.

Mass Offerings to help priests in need around the world
During 2010 we were able to support priests in need with over 1.24 million Mass Offerings. They were shared out as follows:
Africa 31%
Asia 25%
Latin America 20%
Eastern Europe 24%

Last year through the generosity of our benefactors we were able to help priests in need in 95 countries with 1,245,352 Mass Offerings. This is equivalent to 3,412 Masses offered each day. Every 25.3 seconds somewhere in the world a priest began to celebrate Holy Mass for the intentions of one of our donors.

Securing the livelihood of priests working in difficult conditions

“ I'm happy with what the Lord Jesus Christ has entrusted to me through our Bishop - the care of this small flock for the good of all His Holy Church. The support that you give me in the form of Mass intentions via the vicariate is very important because it allows me to cover the most urgent daily needs I face and often it is my only source of livelihood.

For this I am grateful to the Lord because it is the fruit of His providence and due to the generous attitude of brothers and sisters in the Lord whom I have but do not know and thus I wish to tell you that I always pray for you and that the Lord will bless you according to the wishes of your heart and meet your many needs in health and what you want from Divine Providence.

Thankful for everything I say goodbye in the Lord always offering my humble prayers in the Lord Jesus Christ and in Mary our most Holy Mother. “ (Fr. Emilio from Yurimaguas, Peru)
