The parish identifies this occasion as a Blue Mass in honor of Saint Michael the Archangel, patron of law enforcement officers and first responders. The archive dates the gallery to September 29, 2024. The photographs preserve a record of this celebration and the parish's prayerful attention to those who serve and protect others. Devotion to Saint Michael also has a familiar place in traditional Catholic prayer: the prayer invoking his defense against evil is included with the prayers available on our Holy Rosary page. Readers can use that page for the prayer text and browse the lecture archive for further instruction. Return to the past-event directory to view other feast days and parish gatherings.
