Holy Thursday – Evening Mass of the Lord’s Supper 

Homily by Fr. John P. Schlegel, SJ, pastor of the Church of the Gesu (April 2, 2015)    John has preached very well, especially in the past few months. He was stellar this holy night.

John 13:1-15   “So, during supper, fully aware that the Father had put everything into his power and that he had come from God and was returning to God,  he rose from supper and took off his outer garments.  He took a towel and tied it around his waist.  Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel around his waist.  He came to Simon Peter…”
