GOLDEN TREASURY OF HOLY CROSS PRAYER

The Golden Treasury of Holy Cross Prayer is a perpetual enrollment. All those enrolled in the Golden Treasury are supported by the prayers, Masses, good works, and sufferings of Holy Cross priests, brothers, and seminarians throughout the world. Enrollees also benefit from the prayers of their brothers and sisters in the Association.

Your gift will be used for the education of our seminarians, and for the care of our ill and retired priests and brothers.

The offering for the enrollment is entirely up to you. We do not suggest an offering because many of our benefactors are on fixed income, yet folks still want some idea of what to give. The average gift is $16.00, and gifts range all the way from $0 to $100. Whatever you wish to offer is fine with us.

You will receive a Golden Treasury card and envelope with our acknowledgement of your gift, plus a replacement card and envelope for future use. If you want more than one replacement card, please let us know on the form. If you request more than one replacement card, we ask that you help us out in your gift to cover the extra mailing expenses.

Thank you, and God Bless !

Silver Treasury Card Cover

SILVER TREASURY OF HOLY CROSS PRAYER

The Silver Treasury card was introduced in late April, 2001. It is a one year enrollment. Many benefactors had wondered what to do for an encore if they had sent someone (who was seriously ill, for example) a Golden Treasury card, which is the perpetual enrollment. So if "Chris" recovered and then later took sick again, what could they do to show support and care? The Silver Treasury card is a way you can show support and care for someone who is passing through a short-term time of stress and change.

Your gift will be used for the education of our seminarians, and for the care of our ill and retired priests and brothers.

As with the Golden Treasury, there is no set offering. I cannot give you any range of offerings, because this is too new to have any sense of what people will give. Whatever you wish to give is quite acceptable to us.

You will receive a Silver Treasury card and envelope with our acknowledgement of your gift, plus a replacement card and envelope for future use. If you want more than one replacement card, please indicate this on the form. If you request more than one replacement card, we ask that you help us out in your gift to cover the extra mailing expenses.

Thank you, and God Bless !

Mass Intention Card Cover

MASS INTENTION

We offer our benefactors the service of having Masses said for their intentions. The Mass Intention Card pictured above is for those who are deceased. We also have a Mass Card for the living or for special intentions (not pictured). The place or date of the Mass cannot be guaranteed, due to circumstances beyond our control. The most I can say is that Masses are offered within two months, three at the maximum.

The requested Mass stipend is $7.00, which goes directly to the CSC priest saying the Mass.

You will receive a Mass Intention card and envelope along with our acknowledgement of your gift, plus an extra Mass Intention card and envelope for future use. If you need more than one extra card, please indicate this on the form. We ask only that you help a little extra in your gift to cover our additional mailing costs.

Thank you, and God Bless!
