As we instituted last year, we will begin our Maundy (mandate) Thursday service in the parish hall with an Agape Meal in Parish Hall, 5:30 pm. Like last year we will gather for a middle eastern potluck where we will have fellowship and the first half of the service (the Liturgy of the Word) with readings and homily. At 6:30 pm we will move into the church proper for the second half of the service (Liturgy of Holy Communion) and the stripping of the altar and the setting up of the Altar of Repose (where the sacrament is held until Good Friday morning when it is consumed).
