During the Chrism Mass, the clergy renew their vow of obedience to the bishop and their commitment to serve God’s people. Bishop Steven will bless the oils to be used in the parishes this coming year: Oil for the Sick (used in anointing the sick), Oil for Catechumens (used during baptism), and Oil for the Sacred Chrism (used in the sacraments of initiation and holy orders as well as for special acts of dedication).
