Come observe Maundy Thursday (from the Latin “mandatum,” from a verb that means “to give” or “to order,” or command). After Jesus and the disciples finished the Last Supper and walked toward Gethsemane, Jesus taught them a new commandment: “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another” (John 13:34) Living Lutheran.
