Where Your Donations Go
An offering made in faith deserves a clear answer: what your gift does, how your money is handled, and the impact you make possible.
Every gift to Online Catholic Mass — a Mass intention, a candle, a monthly partnership, or a one-time donation — is used to keep this mission alive. This page is our promise of transparency: here is exactly what your donation supports.
What Your Gift Supports
Four simple impact levels. As a monthly partner, you renew this impact every month.
Daily Mass intentions for one family for an entire month
Religious education materials for five people in missions
One week of mission outreach — food, catechesis, and spiritual care
Full month of online sacramental services for our global community
✝ Monthly Mission Partner — renewed each month
Your donation keeps the daily Mass streams online, powers this website in six languages, supports religious education and mission outreach, and helps us answer the thousands of prayer requests we receive. Every donor's name and intention is remembered at the altar.
Mass Intentions & Candles
When you request a Mass intention, your offering follows the ancient discipline of the Church: per Canon Law (Canons 946–947), the faithful may offer a stipend for the celebration of Mass. Your intention is offered at a designated Mass by one of our priests, and your name is remembered at the altar.
Single Mass — $10 · Triduum (3 Masses) — $30 · Novena (9 Masses) — $90 · Gregorian Masses (30) — $325
Virtual candles ($6.99) are lit before the altar for your intention — for healing, protection, peace, for the living and the departed. A photo confirmation of your lit candle is sent to you every time.
The Mission in Numbers
How Your Money Is Handled
- Secure payments: donations are processed by Donorbox over SSL — the same standard used by thousands of Catholic ministries worldwide. No account is needed to give.
- A receipt is emailed to you automatically for every gift, one-time or monthly.
- A small portion of each donation covers payment processing fees charged by our payment provider. Where bank transfer is available in your country, fees are lower — and more of your gift reaches the mission.
- Monthly gifts can be changed, paused, or cancelled at any time through the secure Donorbox donor portal — the link is in every receipt email.
The Altar Society — Monthly Mission Partners
A small monthly gift — from $10 — gives this mission a firm foundation. Monthly partners keep the daily Mass online, steady through every season, and their names are remembered at the altar every month. Join, give for a season, pause when you need to: it is always in your hands.
