Holy Thursday, also known as Maundy Thursday, commemorates the events of the Last Supper, where Jesus shared His final meal with His disciples before His crucifixion. On this day, He instituted the Sacrament of the Eucharist, giving His body and blood under the appearance of bread and wine, and commanding His followers to "do this in remembrance of me" (Luke 22:19). This day also highlights the institution of the priesthood, as Jesus, by washing the feet of His disciples, set an example of humility and service, instructing them to love and serve one another. Holy Thursday marks the beginning of the Easter Triduum, a time of reflection on the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ, and is observed with solemn Masses, foot-washing ceremonies, and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, recalling Christ's sacrificial love for humanity.
Happy Holy Thursday
