A special Mass for people who work in the legal system, particularly attorneys, judges and government officials, will be offered on Wednesday, Sept. 11. The Red Mass – so named because clergy traditionally wear red vestments for the liturgy, a votive Mass of the Holy Spirit – will be celebrated by Bishop Michael T. Martin, OFM Conv., at St. Patrick Cathedral in Charlotte. A reception will follow in the cathedral’s Family Life Center, hosted by the Charlotte chapter of the St. Thomas More Society. Guest speaker: U.S. District Court Judge Robert J. Conrad. All are welcome to the Mass; RSVP for the reception below.
