Today is Holy Thursday. Basil and Nicholas are helping Fr. at church, Jonah is at at my parent’s house and Maria~Angelica and I are enjoying the quietness and stillness of the house this Holy Thursday. The weather is beautiful and I have all the the windows opened. It is such a blessing to be able to enjoy the fresh breeze and the chirping birds. Glory be to God!
Great and Holy Thursday : The Mystical Supper
On Thursday of Holy Week four events are commemorated: the washing of the disciples’ feet, the institution of the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper, the agony in the garden of Gethsemane, and the betrayal of Christ by Judas
“Of Thy Mystical Supper, 0 Son of God, accept me today as a communicant, For I will not speak of Thy Mystery to Thine enemies, Neither like Judas will I give Thee a kiss; But like the thief will I confess Thee: Remember me, 0 Lord, in Thy Kingdom.”
