Holy Thursday is sometimes called "Maundy Thursday," recalling the new commandment (mandatum novum in Latin) to love one another (John 13:34). On this night, we commemorate the supper Jesus shared with his disciples before his crucifixion, when Jesus washed the disciples' feet and instituted the Lord's Supper. Church membership is not required to participate in the Foot Washing Service or to receive the sacrament of the Lord's Supper. Come, be filled.
