The Blue Mass is a blessing for all first responders in New Mexico: police officers, sheriff's deputies, firefighters, military personnel, emergency medical personnel, correctional officers, probation officers, and search-and-rescue volunteers. It is also an opportunity to honor our fallen heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice. The Mass, hosted by the Archdiocese of Santa Fe, will begin at noon at Queen of Heaven Catholic Church and will also be live-streamed. All are welcome, and first responders are encouraged to wear their uniforms.

All priests are welcome to concelebrate.  Deacons are also welcome to attend, vested in their alb and ASF stole, and should arrive at 11:30 a.m. 

To volunteer as an usher, contact Dan Martinez, Blue Mass Coordinator (505.948.4057 or  [email protected]). Contributions are accepted and will help ensure the continued success of Blue Mass.
