Please join us on Thursday March 28th at 7:15pm for our Maundy Thursday service, preceded by the soup and bun supper at 6:30pm.
“Maundy” comes from the Latin word mandatum, or commandment, reflecting Jesus’ words “I give you a new commandment.” Jesus gave his disciples as he prepared to be betrayed: ‘love one another, as I have loved you”.
On Maundy Thursday we recall the events of the Last Supper and the institution of the celebration of Holy Communion. According to John’s Gospel, the evening began by washing the disciples’ feet, an act of the humblest service.
