Holy Thursday a time of reflection... Maundy or "command", the Washing of the feet, is a religious rite observed by Christians on Holy Thursday on the last week of lent before Pascha or Resurrection Sunday. The name is taken from the first few Latin words sung at the ceremony of the washing of the feet, "Mandatum novum do vobis ut diligatis invicem sicut dilexi vos" ("I give you a new commandment, That ye love one another as I have loved you" John 13:34)
