50th Annual Red Mass to be Celebrated in Tallahassee, March 19

For the 50th consecutive year, the Catholic bishops of Florida will celebrate the Red Mass of the Holy Spirit during the Florida legislative session. The Mass continues the long-standing tradition of calling on the Holy Spirit to provide divine inspiration and guidance for those serving in government and members of the legal profession. Mass participants are Catholic and non-Catholic and include members of Florida’s executive branch, legislators, judges, attorneys, state agency officials and community members.

The Mass will be celebrated at the Co-Cathedral of St. Thomas More at 6:30 pm on March 19, the Solemnity of St. Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Archbishop Thomas G. Wenski of Miami will serve as homilist.
