Maundy Thursday - The Watch
Maundy Thursday is the day when Christians remember the Last Supper when Jesus
celebrated the Passover meal with his disciples in the Upper Room before being
betrayed and arrested in the garden of Gethsemane. Traditionally a silent watch is
kept after the Maundy Thursday evening service recalling Jesus’ words to his
disciples in the garden, “Could you not watch with me for one hour?”. We will be
keeping an hour long silent watch at St Peter’s after the Maundy Thursday service
this year. All are welcome to join in the watch if they wish but please don’t feel
obliged to stay for the whole sixty minutes. It is fine to just dip your toe into the
waters of silence and soak in the peace for a few minutes to think of our Lord before
quietly leaving the church.
