Step Into the Story: Why We Need Volunteers for the Foot Washing at the Mass of the Lord’s Supper
Each Holy Thursday, the Church invites us into one of the most intimate and astonishing moments of the Gospel: Jesus kneeling before His friends and washing their feet. It is a gesture so humble, so unexpected, that it still has the power to stop us in our tracks. This year, we are seeking parishioners willing to step into that moment.
Volunteering to have your feet washed is not about being “chosen” or feeling worthy. It’s about allowing Christ to serve you, just as He served His disciples. It is a living reminder that God meets us in our humanity, not our perfection. Your simple yes becomes a powerful witness to our whole parish: a reminder that discipleship begins with letting ourselves be loved.
Many people hesitate because the act feels vulnerable. But that vulnerability is exactly what makes the ritual so moving. When you step forward, you help our community see the Gospel come to life. You help us remember that service is not abstract; it is personal, tender, and rooted in real relationships.
If you feel even the smallest nudge in your heart, consider this your invitation. Your presence will help shape a moment of grace for our entire parish family. Please prayerfully consider volunteering to have your feet washed at the Mass of the Lord’s Supper. Your yes matters more than you know.
