What time does the Chrism Mass 2024 start: the time of the celebration with Pope Francis
What time does the Chrism Mass 2024 start? Pope Francis celebrates this Mass on the morning of Holy Thursday, March 28, 2024, from St. Peter's Basilica, at 9.30 am. During this Mass the bishop consecrates the holy oils, such as chrism, the oil of the catechumens and the oil of the sick. Sacred oils which will then be used by priests throughout the year.
