What is a Blue Mass?
The “Blue Mass” derives its name from the blue uniforms traditionally worn by many public safety and law enforcement officers. This special liturgy is designed to express deep community gratitude and invoke God’s blessings and protection for our local heroes: law enforcement officers, firefighters, paramedics, and public safety professionals—both retired and on active duty.
During the Mass, the community will assuredly gather to honor and remember those first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice 25 years ago in the line of duty, as well as those who continue to risk their lives daily to serve and protect the residents of Virginia Gardens, Miami Springs, and the broader South Florida region.
