At Mass, the prophet Isaiah trumpets himself as the strong, fine-edged servant of God, a weapon in the hands of his Lord. In the Gospel, Jesus reclines at table at the Last Supper, “deeply troubled,” offering Judas a chance to turn away from evil, hearing Peter avow his undying loyalty. Our diocese celebrates the annual Chrism Mass today, at 11:00 a.m. at the Cathedral of St. Joseph, in the upstairs church. There is no 12:05 p.m. daily Mass. Our parish priests will renew their ordination vows and receive holy oils for their parishes.
