Today is Maundy Thursday, the day before Good Friday, during Holy Week. This day is observed by Christians on the Thursday before Easter. Maundy Thursday (or Holy Thursday) commemorates Christ's Last Supper, as well as the initiation of the Eucharist. We remember this as the time Christ washes the feet of His Disciples, to remind them to love one another as He loved them and how to serve. What a powerful lesson to reflect on today!
