ROME, Italy (Reuters) --
Pope Benedict XVI on Thursday washed
and dried the feet of 12 men at a
traditional Holy Thursday service
commemorating Christ's gesture of
humility to his apostles the night before he died.
The 78-year-old German pope, approaching the
first Easter of his pontificate, said the gesture
should be a reminder that everyone is in need of
spiritual cleansing.
Holy Thursday in the Catholic religion begins at sundown.
This is the night Jesus nad His last supper with the disciples.
and told them of things to come.
In Jamaica we would pray and be with our families or
at be at church.
Tonight I joint my family for a light meal of fish and we
spent time together for the first time in 3 months.
Tomorrow My grandson's funeral
We will be attending Mass and a gathering of family
members and friends. It was not the usual Holy Thursday but
we did need this time together.
HAVE A HAPPY EASTER/PASSOVER EVERYONE!!!!
