Why Don’t More Catholics Do This To Celebrate A Birthday?
Did you know that you could have a Mass offered in honor of your own birthday or for the birthday of a loved one?
Most of us think of Masses being offered only for the deceased, but that is a misconception. Anyone, living or deceased, can receive this gift.
The graces and blessings that will be bestowed on the person a Mass is offered for are far greater than any material gift that money can buy. This is truly a gift that will last an eternity and it will never be returned.
St. John Paul II emphasized the graces that come when a Mass is offered. "The Church believes that she will be heard, for she prays in union with Christ her Head and Spouse, who takes up this plea of His Bride and joins it to His own redemptive sacrifice.”
If you’re considering starting this Catholic birthday tradition in your family, visit the Seraphic Mass Association website to get started.
The Seraphic Mass Association gives you the opportunity to have a Mass offered for a loved one and their intentions on a birthday and for many other occasions.
Masses are offered by Capuchin missionaries around the world, who are dedicated to helping those in need. Your Mass offering will go directly to assisting the ministry of the missionary priest who offers the Mass. The Seraphic Mass Association wants to offer you a FREE Treasury of Prayers so that you can join with them in praying for the intentions of so many Catholics around the world.
