The picture shows the Last Supper between Jesus Christ 'n His Apostles.. The Catholics go to church every Thursday before Easter to remember this..
What Wikipedia says about this White Thursday or Holy Thursday?
is the Christian feast or holy day falling on the Thursday before Easter that commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles. It is the fifth day of Holy Week, and is preceded by Holy Wednesday and followed by Good Friday. In 2009, Maundy Thursday will occur on April 9 in most Christian traditions.
On this day four events are commemorated: the washing of the Disciples' Feet by Jesus Christ, the institution of the Mystery of the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper, the agony of Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane, and the betrayal of Christ by Judas Iscariot.
One of the ceremony in the White Thursday mass is the Priest washes 12 men's foot, just like what Jesus did on the Last Supper.. By doing this, Jesus wants to teach us that we have to be able to serve others..
