April 22, 2024Good Friday Liturgy – The Seven Last Words
April 22, 2024Experience the sacred significance of Maundy Thursday in this evening service.
Maundy Thursday commemorates the poignant events of the Last Supper, a pivotal moment in Christian tradition. As the Bible recounts, Jesus shared a final meal with his disciples, imparting profound teachings of love and service.
During this gathering, Jesus humbly washed the feet of his disciples, exemplifying the spirit of humility and selflessness. The word “Maundy” stems from the Latin “mandatum,” meaning “command,” reflecting Jesus’s directive to love one another as he has loved us.
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples if you love one another.” (John 13:34-35)
Through the sacrament of Holy Communion, we honor the sacrifice and profound love embodied in the Last Supper. We remember Jesus’s impending betrayal and trial.
Join us for the Maundy Thursday service, where the Gospel will be read, and reflections shared. Following tradition, we offer foot washing as a symbol of humility and service, inviting all who wish to participate.
As the service concludes, the Altar is solemnly stripped, lights are dimmed, and all depart in silence.
