Maundy Thursday 2024: Maundy Thursday is observed annually before Good Friday. The day commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples. "Maundy" is rooted in the Latin word "mandatum," which refers to the commandment, referring to Jesus' mandate to his disciples to love one another as he loved them. This solemn day is often marked by services, foot-washing ceremonies, and reflections on the significance of Christ's sacrifice. This year, the day falls on March 28.
