What is a Mass Intention?
Whenever a priest celebrates Mass, he has at least two specific intentions. The first intention is to celebrate the Mass according to the rubrics the Church provided for how to say the Mass. The second is to apply the grace of that Mass toward a specific need or intention. This second intention, commonly called "the intention of the Mass", are special intention offered to God as prayers of intercession and thanksgiving in and through the Eucharist.
Since the graces of the Mass are infinite, many intentions can be offered up at a single Mass. While a priest may only accept one intention per offering at a single Mass, he may have many other intentions not attached to an offering.
In addition, the faithful may bring their own intentions to the Mass, which they each carry privately and place upon the altar spiritually in prayer.
