Maundy Thursday

Maundy Thursday Worship Service ~ April 6th at 7 PM

The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
~ 1 Corinthians 11:23b-26

Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist.  After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
~ John 13:3-5

Prayer: Dear Savior, before you performed the ultimate act of self-giving by offering your life as a ransom for the world, you also gave us a lasting testament of your loving sacrifice in Holy Communion. You, who came not to be served but to serve, washed your disciples’ feet as a parting token of your attitude of willing humiliation. Teach me to treasure this blessed sacrament and your holy example. Move me to serve others as you served. Amen.

Delay not! Delay not! O sinner, draw near!
The waters of life are now flowing for you.
No price is demanded, the Savior is here;
Redemption is purchased, God’s promise is true.
