Maundy Thursday

Maundy Thursday, observed between March 19 and April 22, depending on whether the Gregorian calendar or the Julian calendar is followed, holds significant religious importance in Christianity. This solemn day commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples, as well as his washing of the disciples’ feet, symbolising humility and service.

Maundy Thursday serves as a prelude to Easter Sunday, marking the beginning of the Easter Triduum – a period of reflection, prayer, and remembrance in the Christian faith. It’s a time for believers to contemplate the sacrifice and teachings of Jesus, leading up to his crucifixion and resurrection.

To honour Maundy Thursday and engage with its spiritual significance, here are some content ideas for your digital platforms:

• Share biblical passages and reflections on the events of the Last Supper and Jesus’ act of foot-washing.
• Offer virtual services or devotional sessions for individuals or communities to participate in from the comfort of their homes.
• Provide resources for observing traditional Maundy Thursday rituals, such as the stripping of the altar or the reading of the Passion narrative.
• Invite followers to share their personal reflections or experiences related to Maundy Thursday and its significance in their faith journey.
• Collaborate with local churches or religious organisations to host online events or discussions exploring the theological themes of Maundy Thursday.
