BLUE  MASS
Saturday, September 29, 2018   at   5:30 pm
Corpus Christi Catholic Church
273 S. Prairie Street, Galesburg

A Blue Mass is a traditional Catholic Mass offered especially for the protection and blessing of our public safety workers.  It is called a "Blue Mass" in honor of the typical uniform color of those who serve.  These men and women are who we rely on to keep us safe and cared for on a daily basis often making sacrifices in their own lives.  We want to show our police officers, firefighters, and EMS personnel and their families our support, appreciation, and gratitude, and offer our continual prayers for their protection and well being.
September 29 is the feast of the Archangels
St. Michael (Patron Saint of Police Officers), St. Gabriel, and St. Raphael
Public Safety workers are encouraged to wear their uniforms
