About a Gold Mass: Gold Masses follow in the tradition of special masses for members of particular professions. The oldest, the Red Mass for lawyers and lawmakers, was introduced in the 13th century. By promoting Gold Masses for scientists around the world, SCS hopes to create spiritual fellowship among Catholic scientists, science educators and science students at the local level.
Financial support for this Gold Mass is generously provided by SCS Edmonton and St. Joseph’s College.
