Mangaluru: Scores of devotees gathered at the Rosario Cathedral on April 18, to observe the solemn feast of Maundy Thursday. This is a Christian feast observed to commemorate Jesus Christ’s last supper before his death.
The mass was celebrated by Bishop of the Mangalore Diocese Dr Peter Paul Saldanha. During the mass, as is custom, he washed the feet of 12 selected parishioners, emulating Jesus’ act of washing his disciple’s feet before the supper.
