Chrism Eucharist at Holy Trinity Brussels

Anglican tradition dictates that clergy and lay readers meet during Holy Week with their bishop to bless the oils which will be used in the coming year at baptism, confirmation and for ministry to the sick. For clergy & Readers from the Diocese in Europe, a chrism eucharist (Greek for "an anointing thanksgiving") was held on 4 April at Holy Trinity Brussels, presided by Bishop Richard Frith, formerly Bishop of Hereford (because the diocesan bishop Robert Innes is on sabbatical until later in the month). A lunch provided by Holy Trinity's Community Kitchen was served afterwards.
