Maundy Thursday (from mandatum, ‘commandment’, because of the use of John 13.34 in the Antiphon) contains a rich complex of themes: humble Christian service expressed through Christ’s washing of his disciples’ feet, the institution of the Eucharist, the perfection of Christ’s loving obedience through the agony of Gethsemane.

St Michael's Church, East Ardsley

We are a family-friendly Anglican (Church of England) Church based in the East Ardsley parish, in the South Leeds Deanery, part of the Leeds Episcopal Area of the Diocese of Leeds.

If you've never been to Church before and that feels daunting to you, you could always arrange to meet with our Priest in Charge, Revd Mark, beforehand. He would be more than happy to answer any questions and seek to address any concerns you might have.
