MAUNDY THURSDAY AT PUSHPASHRAMA
“Your love for one another should prove to the world that you are my
disciples”
The day of the establishment of the three of the greatest principles
ever laid by God is the day of Maundy Thursday. Priesthood, Service and
Eucharist the very tenets that build Christianity were commemorated at
our shrine of Infant Jesus in the presence of the huge galore of people.
The initiation to the Triduum of the holiest event of our faith was
celebrated with a solemn mass at 6: 30 PM. The mass was presided by the
rector of Pushpashrama and preached meaningfully by Fr. Joy Francis. The
significant event of washing of the feet was carried out very
meaningfully and after the communion rite was over, the holy sacrament
was taken to the repose altar. After this followed adoration in which
the faithful participated and reflected on the agony of Jesus, assisted
by the prayerful support of the OCDS members and the brothers of
Pushpashrama who conducted the adoration. After the mass, bread was
distributed to the people, who receiving it went silently to their
homes, respecting the significance of the coming events of the holy
week.
