Masses for Vocations
Legionaries of Christ Masses for Vocations offer a meaningful way to pray for the future of the Church. Through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, you can entrust your intentions to God and ask Him to call generous hearts to the priesthood and religious life. Whether offered as an individual Mass, a Triduum of Masses, or a Novena of Masses, each request supports this vital mission through prayer.
These Mass offerings allow you to participate directly in the work of fostering vocations. Each Mass is celebrated with reverence by Legionary priests, lifting up your intentions and asking the Lord to strengthen seminarians, guide those discerning His call, and provide shepherds for His Church. Offering a Mass for vocations is a powerful act of faith and hope.
If you have questions or would like to order cards to keep on hand, please contact Barbara DiSpirito at contact@LCMassRequest.org or call (470) 682-3906.
Where are the Masses offered, and who celebrates them?
Masses are offered at our seminary in Cheshire, Connecticut, and by Legionary priests around the world. With 1,309 priests in 95 communities, your loved one is remembered in prayer with deep care and devotion.
How soon will the Mass be celebrated?
Mass requests are processed daily and shared with our communities for prompt celebration. All Masses, especially Gregorian Masses, are guaranteed to be celebrated within 6 months of the date of receipt, but are usually said much sooner. We’ll do our best to honor specific date requests.
What does it mean to have a Mass offered for a soul?
The Holy Mass is the Church’s most powerful prayer. Offering a Mass unites a soul—living or deceased—to that saving mystery. It is a plea for healing and eternal peace. To request a Mass is to entrust a soul to the mercy of Christ Himself.
What’s the difference between Single Mass, a Novena, and a Gregorian Series?
Single Mass: One Mass for your intention (can include multiple names). Living or deceased.
Novena: Nine Masses for one or more names. Living or deceased. Novenas are nine days of prayer during which we meditate on a particular topic or prepare ourselves deeply for a specific feast day. You can sign up to receive our novenas by email by subscribing.
Gregorian Mass Series: 30 consecutive daily Masses for one deceased soul, offered without interruption.
