In accord with the Diocese of Austin Pastoral Manual all churches within the Diocese may assess fees to cover all expenses associated with the use of the sacred space of the parish and other expenses associated with the preparation of those who will receive and or participate in the rituals themselves, when the celebration of the rite will occur outside of a regularly scheduled Mass time.
THERE IS NEVER A CHARGE FOR ANYONE TO RECEIVE A SACRAMENT
You may give the priest or deacon a stipend as a token of your appreciation. There is no part of these fees reserved for the priest or deacon to celebrate any sacrament or rite of the Church.
