I would not recommend it. It is more respectful to the family of the deceased to give a donation to their faith community as opposed to the sender's. Additionally, the Mass card results in the name of the deceased being mentioned in a religious service that is not part of their custom or beliefs. Would a Catholic want their deceased loved one's name to be a part of a non-Catholic service? Probably not.

It is not appropriate to send a catholic mass card to a non-catholic. Instead, do something meaningful for the intended recipient such as a donation to their church or a favorite charitable organizatio.

Catholic AnswerIf it would mean anything to them, and they would appreciate it. For instance, I had Masses said for my aunt after she died. She had been raised Catholic, but she had not raised her children as Catholic. My cousins are Lutherans. However, I sent the Mass card to my cousin, and she appreciated the fact that I was praying for my aunt, although I don't think she really understood it.

Yes, anyone can give a Mass card as the Mass is celebrated by the priest, not the giver of the card

What is a Catholic Mass card?

A Catholic Mass card is telling the recipient that a certain prayer or prayers are being said at a specific time and place for their loved one. Mass cards are usually given in lieu of flowers at funerals. To get a Mass card you usually give the church a donation. I guess if someone was ill or just going through difficult times a Mass card could be given also; after all prayers are not only for the deceased.
