In a room full to the brim with emotion, Jesus offers a tender, loving, and humble goodbye, stooping low to wash and caress his disciples’ feet. Like the water splashing within the washbasin, his actions ripple out: “Go and do likewise. Just as I have loved you, love one another.” He also shares a meal with his disciples, making the shared food a symbol of his life given for them. This scene offers us a poignant and powerful image of discipleship.

In our service, you will have the opportunity to participate in a foot washing, to remove the protective layers that keep you from God’s love while you remove your shoes. Instead of foot washing, you may participate in handwashing. We will also celebrate Communion.
