Friday, May 7, Holy Trinity Church filled with judges, lawyers, government officials, Knights of Columbus and priests to celebrate the 18th annual Red Mass. Fr. Matthew Long was the homilist and spoke with conviction about Saint Thomas More and other historic figures who held their moral convictions throughout history, shaping our current legal system. This year’s Red Mass honored three members of the legal community who have recently passed away: Michael Hubley, Don Miller and Diana Pratt-Wyatt.
