All are invited to attend the Chrism Mass on March 16, 7 p.m., at Our Lady of Guadalupe Co-Cathedral in Anchorage.

The annual liturgy is one of the church’s most ancient ceremonies — the blessing of sacramental oils. At the Mass, Anchorage Archbishop Roger Schwietz will bless the chrism or holy oil used by archdiocesan parishes throughout the year for anointing the sick, confirmations and baptisms. Clergy and parishioners from around the archdiocese will be in attendance.
