DEAR SOPHIA,

HOLY THURSDAY IS ALSO IMPORTANT.

Greek Orthodox Holy Thursday (Great and Holy Thursday) commemorates the Last Supper, the institution of the Holy Eucharist, the washing of the disciples’ feet, the agony in Gethsemane, and the betrayal by Judas. It is characterized by the Vesperal Liturgy of St. Basil and the dramatic “Service of the Twelve Gospels” in the evening, focusing on Christ’s passion.

1. YOUR GREAT YAYA WAS NAMED GETHSEMANE
2. THEN THERE IS THE BETRAYAL OF JUDAS

I CERTAINLY CAN UNDERSTAND THE BETRAYAL BY JUDAS. THERE ARE MANY FORMS OF JUDAS. NO MATTER WHAT FORM JUDAS TAKES, AND NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES A JUDAS BEGS FOR FORGIVENESS FROM ANYONE OTHER THAN GOD NONE SHALL BE HAD.

LOVE,

DAD
