LITURGY MATTERS: Never Changing; Always New! Come Along To The Chrism Mass

As my friend and now retired colleague, Sr Louise Gannon rsj, has also said in the past, the Chrism Mass is one of my favourite events that features in the life of our diocese each year.

This year’s Chrism Mass will be celebrated on Tuesday 15 April in Sacred Heart Cathedral, beginning at 7pm. Come along!
