Celebrate a Birthday with the Most Valuable Gift: Holy Mass 🙏
Offer Masses of thanksgiving for your birthday or that of your loved ones.
An Eternal Gift of Great Blessing
A birthday is a special occasion to give thanks to God for the gift of life. What better way to celebrate it than by offering Holy Mass in thanksgiving for the birthday person?

The Spiritual Value of the Mass
The Church teaches us that the Eucharist is “the source and summit of the whole Christian life” (CCC 1324). It is the sacrifice of Christ, offered for the salvation of the world and a source of graces for those who receive it.
