Rainbow Mass is a modern Satanic twist on a Catholic Mass, and a celebration of PRIDE through sovereign identity, radical compassion, and unapologetic authenticity. Using reflection, ritual, and shared community, we gather to honor the beauty of existing openly in a world that too often demands masks.
This is not a performance of perfection – it is a recognition of survival, joy, resistance, and pride as practice. All who value empathy, self-determination, and the freedom to become are welcome.
The Mass itself is short (under 20 minutes), delivered by TST Austin Co-Congregation Head, Minister Io Locke. Io likes to make his point quickly and succinctly, because he hated sitting in church for 2 hours listening to someone blab. The message will empower the listener to stand in their truth by practicing sovereignty, supported by an amazing community!
August 23rd – 2pm-4pm South Austin.

Tickets start at $6.66– mostly for safety, people are less likely to cause a disruption when we have their information. We acknowledge the economy sucks and so if the ticket price is the thing that keeps you from coming, email Io @ io@thesatanictempleaustin.com as he has a limited number of promotional tickets to give to folks in need. No one else will know. Your ticket will look and act like everyone elses!
There will be merch for sale, including professionally printed, customized Certificates of Affirmation for those who pre-purchase them via the ticket option!
Exact location to be revealed the day before the event to ticket holders. (To prevent the venue from receiving daily harassment from religious zealots that think we are sacrificing babies or something)
The venue has a full bar and food available, and while there is plenty of parking, consider ridesharing with others to reduce the traffic load.
