Maundy Thursday

Thursday March 28, 2024 7 p.m.

A new commandment I give you: Love one another.

On Maundy Thursday we enter into the Triduum (Three Days). The word Maundy is derived from the Latin “mandatum” which means commandment. On the night before his death Jesus gives the disciples a new commandment: love one another as I have loved you. We participate in a sign of that love as we wash feet and share the sacrament of Christ’s body and blood in the Eucharist. The way of the cross and the power of the resurrection is found in the way of love.
