Bishop Michael R. Cote, D.D., invites you to the Chrism Mass at the Cathedral of St. Patrick in Norwich.
The Chrism Mass is the Liturgy during which the sacred Chrism is consecrated and the Oil of the Sick and the Oil of the Catechumens are blessed. These oils are sanctified for use at the Cathedral and in all parishes in the Diocese of Norwich for Baptism, Confirmation, the Anointing of the Sick and for the Ordination of Priests. Together the three oils symbolize the sacramental life of the Church.
Since the Chrism Mass is truly a Diocesan event ALL parishioners are invited.
