Maundy Thursday Service

Maundy Thursday Service: Maundy comes from the Latin for command. This is tied into Jesus’ Last Supper and the new commandment that He gave to His disciples that “we love one another.”

Join us this night as we hear from the scriptures and gather at His table remembering the events of that took place on the night before Jesus was crucified.

The Collect for Maundy Thursday
Almighty and everlasting God, who, of thy tender love towards mankind, hast sent thy Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ, to take upon him our flesh and to suffer death upon the cross, that all mankind should follow the example of his great humility: Mercifully grant that we may both follow the example of his patience, and also be made partakers of his resurrection, through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Collect for Ash Wednesday
Almighty and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made, and dost forgive the sins of all those who are penitent: Create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that we, worthily lamenting our sins and acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Epistle: 1 Corinthians 11:17-34
