One of the fall highlights for lawyers who are members of the Louisiana bar is the annual Red Mass that is held at St. Louis Cathedral on the first Monday of October. Judges and lawyers from throughout the state gather at the beginning of the judicial year in Jackson Square, then proceed into the nation’s oldest Cathedral for an ecumenical Mass. I’m not Catholic, but it’s a wonderful annual tradition that I don’t want to miss. I had the pleasure of visiting with Archbishop Aymond after the service.
