Maundy Thursday is a solemn day that commemorates Jesus Christ's Last Supper with his disciples and reminds us of the importance of humility, selflessness, and service to others.
It is a powerful recognition of Jesus' commands to love others by foot washing and to remember him through the taking of bread and wine (or juice). What we learn from celebrating Maundy Thursday is that truly, to be a follower of Jesus means that we are to love others because he first loved us (see 1 John 4:19
The word Maundy is derived from the Latin word for “command.” The “Maundy” in “Maundy Thursday” refers to the command Jesus gave to the disciples at the Last Supper, that they should love and serve one another.
Maundy Thursday allows us to remember the Last Supper and Jesus’ sacrifice on our behalf and to remember the Lord’s example of humility.
