"Unless I wash you, you will have no inheritance with me."

Its Holy Thursday. While not so obvious to perhaps many, its one of the greatest days in history. But to you who are Catholic out there, you know what I'm talking about. And for those who aren't in the know. Its a Celebration and remembrance of the Last Supper. What is so special about this day? Jesus provided a direct example of how we are to live our lives (in service to each other). And more importantly, he gave us himself. In the form of bread and wine. In the institution of the Holy Eucharistic.

On a more local note, I'm quite excited, as I was called by our Church to see if I was willing to partake in the ritual (I think that's an appropriate word) washing of the feet. I can't help but wonder if there is a deeper meaning, aside from the obvious "service" message that is trying to be shared with me. In anyway, I'm excited, and I think E1 and E2 will get a kick out of it.

"Master, then not only my feet, but my hands and head as well."
Jesus said to him,
"Whoever has bathed has no need except to have his feet washed,
for he is clean all over;

Peace today, and during this beginning of the Holy Triduum
