Maundy Thursday




Maundy Thursday is a Christian holiday that commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples. It is celebrated on the Thursday before Easter Sunday, and its name comes from the Latin word "mandatum," which means "commandment." During the Last Supper, Jesus gave his disciples a new commandment to love one another, and he also instituted the Eucharist, which is a Christian sacrament that involves the eating of bread and wine in remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice.

Maundy Thursday is a day of remembrance and reflection for Christians. It is a time to remember the events of the Last Supper and to reflect on the love that Jesus showed for his disciples. It is also a time to prepare for the celebration of Easter, which commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
