Catholic Days at the Capitol

Event on: 2016-February 16th 7:00 AM - 8:00 PM

Each year Catholics from around the state are invited to gather in Tallahassee to participate in Catholic Days at the Capitol. Participants attend a legislative briefing on human life and dignity issues prior to meetings with elected officials. Included in the activities is a luncheon for participants, the bishops of Florida and state legislators.

Participants are also invited to the annual Red Mass of the Holy Spirit concelebrated by the Bishops of Florida. Attended by state officials, lawmakers, judges, members of the legal profession and the community, the Red Mass is celebrated to pray for those working in the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. This will be Bishop Lynch’s last year of participation, and he would love to see a great crowd from our diocese. Please make arrangements now to attend! Register now with the Office of Life Ministry, Diocese of St. Petersburg here.
