Each year the Mass Intention Book fills up quickly. Church and Chapel Lamps are available throughout the year to help parishioners dedicate their intentions. Each Lamp burns for an entire week, beginning Sunday through Saturday.

Lamps could be dedicated and burn in memory or in honor of:
A deceased loved one
A living person who is sick or suffering

A special prayer intention (IF the intention does not contradict Church teaching)
“Private Intention” cannot be listed as a Lamp Dedication.
