THE CHRISM MASS AT MACAU CATHEDRAL
“Tu est sacerdos in aeternumâ€
On Holy Wednesday, April 20, 2011, the Diocese of Macau, headed by its Bishop Joseph Lai, celebrated the Chrism Mass at 6: PM at the Cathedral of Macau. About 65 secular and religious priests concelebrated with the Bishop, accompanied by lay faithful that filled up the church. During the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, the bishop and priests renewed their priestly promises, and Bishop Lai blessed and consecrated the Holy Oils of Catechumens and of the Sick, and the Chrism. After the solemn Mass prayed and sung in Portuguese, Chinese and Latin, and animated beautifully by the choir of the Cathedral, all the priests were invited by the bishop and the canons of the Cathedral to a delicious fraternal agape.
