About the event
What is Holy Thursday?
Holy Thursday, also known as Maundy Thursday, is a significant observance in the Catholic Church that commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with His disciples. This event is pivotal in the Christian faith as it marks the institution of the Eucharist, wherein Jesus shared bread and wine, symbolizing His body and blood, and commanded His followers to do this in remembrance of Him.
Significance of the Celebration
The celebration of Holy Thursday serves multiple purposes:
Institution of the Eucharist: It highlights the establishment of the Holy Communion, a sacrament central to Catholic worship.
Washing of the Feet: During the Mass, a ritual reenactment of Jesus washing the feet of His disciples emphasizes humility and service.
