In the Cathedral of Paris in 1245\, a Mass was held to invoke the guidance of the Holy Spirit on the judges of the Ecclesiastical Courts. It is believed the first liturgy was celebrated in honour of St. Ives of Brittany\, the patron saint of lawyers. The practice of the Red Mass spread to England in 1310 during the reign of King Edward I. The entire Bench and Bar attended this special Eucharist at the beginning of the spring term of Court. The Name “Red Mass” became a tradition because of the red robes worn by the judges and the red vestments worn by the priests. The Red Mass has been held annually in Westminster Cathedral\, London\, since 1904. The Red Mass was first held in Toronto in 1925. Its sponsorship was assumed by the Guild of Our Lady of Good Counsel in 1931 and by The Thomas More Lawyers’ Guild of Toronto since 1968. One of the primary objectives of the Thomas More Lawyers’ Guild of Toronto is the sponsorship of the Red Mass. \nWe look forward to celebrating this milestone with you.  \nP.S.: Tickets are available exclusively through our website\, and membership in the Guild is not required to purchase a ticket for the Red Mass. \nWarm Regards\, \nThe Thomas More Lawyers’ Guild of Toronto 								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n					\n	\n\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n\n		\n\n\n\n	Tickets\n\n		\n	\n	\n		The numbers below include tickets for this event already in your cart.
