My brothers and sisters in Christ,
Even in these extraordinary times we continue our beautiful tradition of celebrating the Chrism Mass on this Monday night of Holy Week.
And in this Chrism Mass, we ask for the grace to renew our identity and commitment as Christians, as God’s priestly people.
We hear in tonight’s second reading that Jesus Christ “loves us and has freed us from our sins by his Blood” and he has “made us into a Kingdom, priests for his God and Father.”
