Mass IntentionsTo have your intention mentioned at Mass, contact the parish office to schedule a Mass. Call or visit the office, and the secretary will provide available dates and times. A $10 donation is customary.Parish Secretary - St. Ambrose, AndersonParish Secretary - St. Mary, AndersonParish & School Secretary - St. Mary, Alexandria
Once scheduled, your Mass intention will be printed in the bulletin the weekend before. Even if not mentioned aloud during Mass, it is still offered for that person.
Each Mass can have only one intention, so you may need to choose an alternate time if your preferred slot is taken. Weekday Masses are often more available than weekends. Some parishioners schedule months in advance for specific dates like birthdays or anniversaries.
-
Prayer LineThere are people in our pastorate who are happy to pray for your special intentions! Contact your parish secretary to learn how to connect with the Prayer Line.Parish Secretary - St. Ambrose, AndersonParish Secretary - St. Mary, AndersonParish & School Secretary - St. Mary, Alexandria

Pastorate Lost & Found
St. Mary Anderson: Check the bin labeled “lost & found” located over the coat rack near the door in the church annex.
St. Mary Alexandria: Found items are generally deposited on one of the benches in the narthex.
St. Ambrose: Found items are typically placed in the ushers’ room.
-
Church OfferingIf you place your offering in your pre-printed church envelope (or if you write a check made out to a specific parish), your offering will go to the parish written on the envelope (or check), regardless of where in our pastorate that Mass was held. If you contribute cash with no envelope, the money will go to the church hosting that specific Mass.One way around this would be to place your contribution in a plain white envelope (generally available at the back our all our churches) and write on it the name of the parish you wish that offering to be attributed to.Don’t get pre-printed church envelopes in the mail? Contact your parish secretary to get you signed up! It’s easy, fast, and free.Parish Secretary - St. Ambrose, AndersonParish Secretary - St. Mary, AndersonParish & School Secretary - St. Mary, Alexandria
