The first reading from Exodus tells us a bout the first Passover celebrated by Moses and his people. The second reading was from the Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthian. It tells us about the The Last Supper Jesus have had. The Gospel reading were taken from John13 : 1 - 5. Here the Gospel tells us about Jesus washing His disciple's feet.
