The annual Red Mass will be celebrated by the Most Rev. Robert McClory, Bishop of the Diocese of Gary, Indiana on Tuesday, October 1, at 5:15 p.m. The Red Mass is a Thirteenth Century European custom, which derives its name from the color of the vestments worn by the priest, as well as the scarlet robes worn by the judges of the Middle Ages, to symbolize the inspiration, guidance, and protection of the Holy Spirit for judges, lawyers, and public officials at the beginning of the judicial year.
