All discerners are invited to attend the archdiocesan annual “Chrism Mass”.  The Chrism Mass is a celebration where the Archbishop blesses the sacred oils that will be used in the coming year for the sacraments. At the end of mass, the oils are distributed to all parishes. During the ceremony all the priests of the Archdiocese are asked to renew their priestly vows and commitment to priesthood. The Archbishop addresses his homily to them.
