Jubilee Blue Mass April 1
February 11, 2025 at 3:56 p.m.
People of all faiths throughout Central New Jersey are invited to pray for law enforcement personnel who work to keep their communities safe during the Jubilee Blue Mass April 1 in St. Robert Bellarmine Co-Cathedral, 61 Georgia Rd., Freehold, beginning at 10:30 a.m.
Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., will be principal celebrant and homilist and will be joined at the altar with priests from across Burlington, Mercer, Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Bagpipers, fife and drum corps members and color guard processions will once again be part of the day’s tribute. This is the 23rd year that the Diocese has hosted this event.
Formally titled the Jubilee Celebration of Law Enforcement, the event is organized by the Jubilee Blue Mass Committee to thank God for the sacrifice and service to the communities given by police officers and law enforcement agents at every level. As part of the Holy Year proclaimed by Pope Francis, the Blue Mass is one of a series of diocesan events designated as Jubilee celebrations.
The Mass is open to the public. A luncheon will follow for law enforcement personnel and their families. All who wish to attend the luncheon must register online at dioceseoftrenton.org/blue-mass. Tickets are $20 per person; immediate family members of law enforcement personnel are invited to the luncheon at no charge. Anyone unable to attend the Jubilee Blue Mass can watch via Livestream at www.youtube.com\trentondiocese.
