Maundy Thursday
April 17 6:00 pm | Ellendale United Methodist Church Sanctuary

We call this day Maundy Thursday for the great commandment “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength, and love neighbor as self.” The word “Maundy” comes from the Latin “mandatum” which means command. As we remember the words of Jesus spoken on this night, let us examine the depth of our love for God and neighbor. As you return home following our serving tonight, remember that Jesus made his way to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray… where afterwards He is betrayed by Judas and arrested by the Jewish High Counsel.
