The Liturgy of Maundy Thursday

Thursday 28 March at 7pm
The Liturgy of Maundy Thursday

The first of the three services of the ‘Sacred Triduum’ (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Liturgy), which take us deep into the mystery of Holy Week.

Following a joyful commemoration of the Last Supper, with the washing of feet recalling Jesus doing the same for his disciples, the mood then changes with the dramatic stripping of the altars. The service ends with Watch, waiting with Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane. For those who wish to stay, the Watch continues until 10.00pm.
