St. Francis by the Sea Catholic Church & School

If you would like to have a Mass celebrated for a special occasion, on behalf of a family member or friend (intention), or a deceased loved one, please submit a Mass request to us.

Mass intention requests may be done in three ways:

• By stopping by our Parish Office (45 Beach City Road, Hilton Head Island, SC 29926) between the hours of 7:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

• Calling our office at 843-681-6350 between the hours of 7:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. and speaking with our Parish Secretary, Merideth.

• Or you may now request a Mass online! Please note:  If you do not see any dates under a specific month, it means that all of the dates are taken for that month.  Please continue to scroll down.  To access the link, please click here.

We are happy to mail the Mass Card directly to the person, if living, for whose intention the Mass will be offered, or to a family member of the deceased. You can also mail the card for the person yourself.

All Mass Intentions are voluntary offerings, since the Holy Eucharist is the universal prayer of all the church. The typical offering is ten dollars. The Code of Canon Law notes that the petitioner also benefits: “Christ’s faithful who make an offering so that Mass can be celebrated for their intention contribute to the good of the Church, and by that offering they share in the Church’s concern for the support of its ministers and its activities” (Canon 946). 

Stipends for Mass Intentions may be brought or mailed to the Parish office (cash or check).  Our address is St. Francis by the Sea, 45 Beach City Road, Hilton Head Island, SC 29926.  Please note "Mass Stipend" in the Note Section of your check.
