No woman was one of the 12 disciples at the last supper, but this Thursday, the priests will gather for the Holy Thursday service, and I have been chosen to represent my rcia class, and to be among the 12 who will get their feet washed.
I'm told that this is something new, that the church would allow a woman to be up on the alter, among the 12.
I am honored and also so humbled, scared, nervous and weepy too.
I think I will wear a skirt to represent my gender, with footless tights and a slip on shoe.
Do you think Mary Magdalene was at the last supper? Was she a disciple too?
What do you think of this new strategy of allowing women to be represented?
Anyone else, male or female have this done and how did you feel about it?
John 13:1-17
Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
