Maundy Thursday service tonight!

Tonight's service is at 7 p.m. What is Maundy Thursday?

 According to The Upper Room, Maundy Thursday "is the day that Christians remember the gathering of Jesus and his disciples for the Last Supper. Maundy comes from the Latin word mandatum, meaning commandment, in reference to Jesus' teachings about 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. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another' " (John 13:34-35, NRSV).
