Holy Week: Maundy Thursday

This Thursday we celebrate Maundy Thursday.  It is the day that we remember Jesus instituting the Lord's Supper and sharing with His disciples (then and now), that His body and blood will give new life to all who eat of it. 

This was a monumental day for our Lord as He gave a new covenant to His people, the covenant that His blood covering over us will bring the passing of the Angel of Death over us.  With the blood of Jesus spread over us we have the guarantee of life to its fullest. 

This Maundy Thursday remember and partake in the very body and blood of Jesus Christ.  We remember that He is the one who in just four short days will rise from the dead, and so it is simple for Him to be present in, with, and under the very bread and wine. 

God Bless your Holy Week preparation
