Textbook Lesson
Expanding Thoughts on Lesson
- Holy Chrism – Baptism & Chrismation
- "(Holy Mooron is consecrated) in order to confer adoption as sons and the garment of life to those who wear it, to anoint our spiritual head, to gladden our faces that were blackened with sins, to help the spiritual athletes and to give virtue to those who have entered the world and good company to those who are sent off" - St. Dionysius Bar Salibi, (Dionysius Bar Salibi: Commentaries on Myron and Baptism by Baby Varghese, published by SEERI, 2006)
