The annual Chrism Mass will be celebrated by Archbishop Shelton J. Fabre at the Cathedral of the Assumption, 433 S. Fifth St., on March 26 at 7 p.m.
During the liturgy, the archbishop will bless and consecrate the holy oils used by our parishes throughout the year. Priests in attendance will also renew their promises.
The liturgy, which is open to all, is expected to last about an hour and a half. It will be followed by a reception. On-street parking is free after 6 p.m. and a parking garage is available next door to the cathedral.
