There are several changes for booking 2021 Masses. Due to the Parish Office remaining closed to the public we ask for your understanding and cooperation. We will begin scheduling Masses on the 1st of October.
Please submit your requested dates on paper, mark your envelope “Masses” and drop in the collection basket, mail to the office at 600 Second Ave., Harvey, LA 70058 or drop off in the mailbox on the gate. We will make every effort to provide you with your chosen dates. Please provide your phone number and/or email address. You will be contacted in the event your selection cannot be accommodated.
You should also include your date requests for Lamps and Altar Wine along with your Mass intentions. Since Lamps and Altar Wine are single intentions they will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Please submit your requests as soon as possible.
Donation is due at the time you submit your dates for Masses. However, if you are not sure of the amount, the Parish Office will calculate the amount and call you. Following is a list of prices to aid in your calculation.
The customary donation for a stipended Mass is $5.00, however, if you care to give a more substantial donation, it would be a real blessing for the Church.
The $5.00 stipend is per individual per Mass – exceptions are:
1. Husband and wife is considered one (1) and
2. Combined families, i.e., Smith & Jones Families deceased is also considered one (1).
Offering for Lamps and Altar Wine are as follows:
Sanctuary Lamp $10.00
Blessed Mother’s Lamp $10.00
Altar Wine $10.00
At the present time, Altar Flowers will only be ordered if a parishioner requests, and pays for them. The prices stated are the actual amounts we pay; the parish does not make any money on flowers. Flowers can represent a special dedication for a Celebration of Life Event, i.e., a Birthday or Anniversary, etc., or in Memory of a deceased loved one.
Main Altar
(2 arrangements flanking Tabernacle): $70.00
Offertory
(1 larger arrangement in front of Altar): $60.00
Blessed Mother’s Altar
(a small bud vase or similar arrangement): $25.00
The above flower prices are exactly what the church has to pay to the Florist.
No extra charges are added for the church.
The ProPopulo Mass for parishioners will be offered this year every Saturday morning at 8:00 a.m. and on all Holy Days. (This Mass is for Parishioners Living and Deceased – no specific Mass intentions on these days)
Multiple Mass intentions are available at 4:00 p.m. on Saturday and 10:30 a.m. Sunday. At the present time the 8:00 a.m. Mass on Sunday will be a single intention Mass (only one per deceased individual per year).
If you have any questions please call the Parish Office at 340-1962.
