0 Fairlight Hastings, TN35 4DA, United Kingdom

What happened on Maundy Thursday and why is it important?
This day commemorates Jesus's last supper with his disciples. During that meal in the upper room, Jesus washed his disciples' feet and gave them a new commandment: “Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another” (John 13:34). The word “Maundy” comes from the Latin mandatum, meaning “command.”
