Maundy is from a Latin word meaning "Mandate" or Commandment. It reminds us that on the Thursday before Jesus Christ was crucified he instituted the Holy Communion at the Last Supper. At that Supper he commanded his disciples to continue with this celebration of Holy Communion as a way of remembering what
his death accomplished. He also commanded his disciples to serve others by using the image of the washing of the feet of his disciples.http://www.st-michaels-buffalo.org
