Maundy Thursday
Certain for ever is the memory of his wonders:the Lord is full of pity and mercy.Psalms 111:4
Dear sisters and brothers in Christ,
Today is Maundy Thursday. The day on which we remember how Jesus celebrated the last supper with his disciples. A day on which we usually meet to celebrate the Lord’s Supper together. You must miss it as much as I do.
Today, I am sending you a link for a Maundy Thursday devotion, so we can have fellowship, knowing that we are not alone today:

We can be strengthened by the connection of remembering what we are missing today. One aspect of the celebration of Holy Communion is memory. So today we want to particularly emphasize the memory. The memory of how Jesus got together with his disciples. But also our personal memory of celebrating Holy Communion together.
We miss it today, but at least we may accept this as a reminder to further appreciate the great gift that Jesus gave us. And together we look forward to the day when we will be able to celebrate the communion with HIM and with each other anew.
Your
