Maundy Thursday and the Last Supper

Today is Maundy Thursday, the day before Good Friday and the day that commemorates the Last Supper, the final meal that Jesus Christ had with his disciples before his arrest - the origin of the Eucharist - and Jesus' act of washing the feet of his disciples.

It was a special day in medieval and Tudor times, and you can click here to read all about how this day was marked.

Here, in Spain, we have special processions and I will try to take some photos for you. Does your church or community do anything for Maundy Thursday?
