With access to a wealth of experience, membership in the Guild allows for senior professionals to serve as mentors and provide guidance to younger lawyers. The Guild also cultivates a rich forum in which both judges and lawyers may meet on a level playing field to discuss issues of faith.

Encouraging members to live their faith within their professions with courage and reason, The Guild is open to anyone in the legal field from law school students to the most experienced lawyers. Recognized by the Archdiocese of Boston, The Guild also assists the cardinal archbishop in his work within the community.

Current leadership of The Catholic Lawyers' Guild of Boston includes: President, the Honorable Joseph Nolan; and Vice Presidents, the Honorable Maura S. Doyle and Paul J. McNamara, Esq. The Very Rev. Mark O'Connell serves as the organization's spiritual director.

The Guild welcomes and encourages the general public to attend both the Red Mass and the subsequent luncheon. The Red Mass is free and open to the public. Tickets to the luncheon are available for $125 per person ($75 per person for law students and young lawyers having five or fewer years admitted to the Bar) by visiting www.clgb.org.
