1. Send your request

Fill in the form on the website (the “Request a Mass” button) or write to us by e-mail or via a messaging app. Please give:

  • the type of intention – e.g. Gregorian Masses, a novena, a single Mass,
  • the text of the intention – for Gregorian Masses, the name of one deceased person,
  • the date, if a particular start date matters to you,
  • the e-mail address to which we should reply.

2. You receive a proposed date

We reply by e-mail with a proposed start date and the times of the Masses. Thanks to free dates in the parishes of eastern Belarus, Gregorian Masses can usually begin at short notice – we give the exact date in our reply.

3. You make your offering

In the same message we send the details for making your offering. What a Mass offering is and what it is used for is explained on the Mass offering page.

4. Confirmation

No later than two days after receiving your offering we send a confirmation, which includes:

  • the text of the intention,
  • the date or dates of the Masses,
  • the time of each Holy Mass.

This allows you to unite yourself spiritually with each Eucharist – by praying at the same time.

Who celebrates the Masses

The Masses are celebrated by priests of the Archdiocese of Minsk–Mohilev – first of all in the Parish of Our Lady of Białynicze. You can meet them on the Priests page.

Questions and answers

Can I request Masses by telephone?
Yes – call us or write via a messaging app (WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram). You will find the number at the bottom of the page. We will still send the confirmation of the date by e-mail.
Is my data safe?
We use the data from the form solely to handle your request. Details are in our privacy policy.

The Shrine of Our Lady of Białynicze

For centuries Białynicze on the Druts river was one of the most important Marian shrines of the old Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, known as the “Częstochowa of Belarus”. The Carmelite church with the miraculous image of Our Lady, crowned in 1761, was destroyed in Soviet times.

Today the parish is rebuilding the shrine, and every Mass requested here supports this work.
