Incense and Prayer
Episode 4
Within the Christian tradition, this ancient search has culminated in the person of Jesus Christ. On Holy Thursday, we commemorate the Last Supper, including the washing of the feet and the institution of the Holy Eucharist. As often as we have listened to the retelling of this scene and viewed it in various works of art, it can seem commonplace. However, when we examine the reality of what Jesus gave us during his last meal, we are in awe. At every Mass, we celebrate the memorial of Christ’s offering and beckon every searching heart to find a home in the life of the Trinity.
