The Chrism Mass this year is at St Ninian’s Cathedral on Maundy Thursday 28th March at 11.00 am. At this service the Oil of Chrism (for Baptism) and the Oil of Healing (for the Sacrament of Healing) are consecrated, the Clergy re-affirm the promises of their Ordination, and Lay Readers re-affirm the commitment made at their Licensing. This is a very important re-dedication of ministry in the heart of Holy Week.
Clergy (in alb and white stole) and all Lay Readers (in cassock, surplice and scarf) are invited to participate, together with all those involved in ministry, and all members of the Diocese are invited to join them.
Clergy should bring emptied and cleaned Oil Stocks, to be filled for ministry in the coming year.
Lunch is being provided, so please let the Diocesan Office know if you will be coming, how many will come from your congregation, and if you have special dietary requirements.
