April 19, 2011 (Catheral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, Denver, CO) - Quoting Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI: "In the Chrism Mass on Holy Thursday, the holy oils are at the center of the liturgical action. They are consecrated in the bishop’s cathedral for the whole year. They thus serve also as an expression of the Church’s unity, guaranteed by the episcopate, and they point to Christ, the true “shepherd and guardian” of our souls, as Saint Peter calls him (1 Pet 2:25)."
