Dolan pours fragrant balsam into a vessel of olive oil as he prepares to consecrate the chrism during the Archdiocese of New York's chrism Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City March 26, 2024. The balsam symbolizes the "aroma of Christ" (2 Corinthians 2:15), and the oil represents strength. Chrism is used during baptism, confirmation, the ordination of priests and bishops, and the consecration of churches and altars. (OSV News photo/Gregory A. Shemitz)
