Holy (Maundy) Thursday Foot Washing at Home
Consider doing a foot washing service at home this year with your family.
Take time to wash each other’s feet, explaining to your children that it’s a way to serve each other.
Discuss what it means to serve others, share ideas about how to better live this out in your daily lives.
Talk about how you can continue to serve others, especially in this time of social distancing and quarantine.
Keep a Prayer Vigil at Home on Thursday
After the Last Supper, Jesus went to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. This was his most passionate and desperate night of prayer, yet the disciples he took with him kept falling asleep.
Commit to an hour of silent prayer on Thursday night.
Sit outside on your porch or balcony and pray ‘in the garden’ with Jesus. Or, light a candle and create a sacred spot in your home to pray.
