Maundy Thursday is believed to be the day when Jesus celebrated his final

Passover with His disciples. It is the Christian holy day falling on the
Thursday before Easter. It commemorates the Washing of the Feet and Last
Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles, as described in the canonical
gospels. It is the fifth day of Holy Week, preceded by Holy Wednesday and
followed by Good Friday.

As a Non-Catholic, I don’t have any idea about this


one because we don’t do this at all. But as to what I have
understood while searching, Jesus taught us to never
forget the lesson or the good things that He have done. He
cleaned the feet of His disciples for them to be pure again.
The Lord's Supper ensures that we can remember Jesus
from any place. I have realized that the washing of the
feet is a sacred thing to do for Catholics. They do believe
that by doing this, they are imitating the loving humility
of Christ himself.
On Good Friday, the crucifixion of Jesus Christ is commemorated
in the Christian Church. It is traditionally a day of fasting and
penance. We remember the day Jesus willingly suffered and died
by crucifixion as the ultimate sacrifice for our sins. It is followed
by Easter, the glorious celebration of the day Jesus was raised from
the dead, heralding his victory over sin and death and pointing
ahead to a future resurrection for all who are united to him by
faith. In the stations of the cross, they go through 12 stations
wherein Jesus carried His cross to Mt. Calvary.

As a Non-Catholic, my realization is that


Catholics should know how to appreciate and
remember what Jesus did to us. Non only Catholics
but everyone is required to appreciate all of His
sacrifices. God gave Jesus to us in order for us to be
saved and be alive. This is also one of the most
important day for Catholics because this is where
they mourn Christ’s suffering.
Black Saturday or Holy Saturday commemorates the day that
Jesus Christ lay in the tomb after his death, according to the
Christian bible. It is the day after Good Friday and the day before
Easter Sunday. It is also known as Easter Eve, Easter Even, Black
Saturday, or the Saturday before Easter. The Easter Vigil is a
service held in traditional Christian churches as the first official
celebration of the resurrection of Jesus.

As a Non-Catholic, my idea is that in this day


Catholics should not lose hope or faith to Jesus
because He promised us that he will come again to
judge the living and the dead. This event is very
important to Catholics also because it is a celebration
of the resurrection of Jesus, they make the
resurrection of the Lord a day of prayer.
