Grace Cathedral

Maundy Thursday (In-Person and Livestream)
March 28, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

The Proper Liturgy of Maundy Thursday celebrates the events of the Last Supper, including the footwashing and the institution of the Eucharist. It is the only Eucharist celebrated between Wednesday and the Great Vigil and ties the events of the Last Supper to those of Good Friday.
Maundy Thursday is widely observed as the institution of the Holy Eucharist. The setting, however, is not the institution narrative, but the Gospel according to St. John. There, Jesus takes a towel and washes the feet of his disciples, instituting a servant ministry. On Maundy (from the Latin mandatum, or commandment) Thursday, we follow Jesus’ command and wash one another’s feet. Then, the Eucharist is celebrated with fullness until the organ falls silent and the consecrated Bread is placed on the Altar of Repose, after which we wait in vigil.
The Rt. Rev. Dr. Marc Handley Andrus, Bishop, presiding, and the Rev. Canon Mary Carter Greene, Canon Pastor, preaching. Sung by the mixed-voice choir.

Event Details
The entrance to the cathedral is at the top of the Great Steps. The accessible entrance is via the glass doors on Taylor Street or from the cathedral garage. Masks are strongly encouraged inside the cathedral.
