My Brothers and Sisters in Christ: We are once again in the Hurricane Season. The Atlantic Hurricane Season is from June 1 to November 30. Weather experts inform us that this is the sixth year in a row that we have had a named storm before the official start of the Hurricane Season. This year we have already had two such named storms before the start of the Hurricane Season.

It is because of this most extraordinary time of a pandemic caused by COVID19 and its presence among us that we find ourselves celebrating our Sunday Mass the way we are doing it today.

I would like to welcome all the members of the Judiciary and the Bar who have gathered for this celebration of the Red Mass. The Red Mass is a special occasion in our liturgical year. Annually we gather, at the start of the legal year, to invoke the guidance of the Holy Spirit on the legal profession, the judiciary and associate groups.

We, the Roman Catholic Bishops of the Antilles Episcopal Conference in the Caribbean welcome the proclamation by Pope Francis of a Holy Year of Mercy which commenced with the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception on the 8th day of December 2015, and which will end on the Feast of Christ the King on the 20th day of November 2016.

Fr. George Wolf, O.S.B. died peacefully at Saint John’s Abbey, Collegeville, Minnesota, yesterday, May 20, 2013.
