Parishes, schools, and other organizations are invited to sponsor the filming of this special diocesan event. This Holy Week liturgy highlights the unity of our Diocesan Church, the commitment of our clergy, and the consecration of Holy Oils. 

Sponsorships are due to diocesan offices by 3:00 p.m. on Monday, March 16, 2026.

Your support helps extend this celebration so that thousands of viewers who cannot attend in person may join us in spiritual communion. Sponsors will be listed in the credits of this production based on your sponsorship level.

The Communications Department will live stream the Chrism Mass at https://catholicecho.org/live/. Once the Chrism Mass is edited with captions and credits, it will be posted for future viewing on our YouTube channel and Facebook page.
