Archdiocese of Cincinnati Chrism Mass

Join Archbishop Casey and the priests and faithful of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati for the annual Chrism Mass, celebrated on Holy Tuesday, March 31 at 4:00 p.m. at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Peter in Chains. In this once-a-year Holy Week liturgy, the Archbishop will bless the Oils of the Sick and Catechumens and consecrate the Sacred Chrism to be used in sacramental celebrations throughout the archdiocese in the coming year. The priests will also renew the promises made at their ordination. All are welcome – especially those recently anointed or initiated, or those preparing for Christian Initiation in the coming year – to share in this unique liturgy. This is a great opportunity for families to experience our local Church gathered in prayer!
