Maundy Thursday Eucharist with Stripping of the sanctuary, followed by the watch.

for 1 hour
St Cuthbert's, Haydon Bridge
Church Street Haydon Bridge Hexham, NE47 6JG, United Kingdom

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.

All are welcome to this moving service as we recall the events of the last supper and Christ's agony in the garden.
