How it works
The Bible tells how Jesus's friends got ready for the Passover supper in Jerusalem. Passover was a special meal that remembered how God rescued his people from Egypt.
Jesus sent Peter and John ahead. A man with a water jar led them to a house, and they got an upstairs room ready, with flat bread and bitter herbs on the table.
At supper Jesus tied a towel around his waist and washed his friends' feet, which was a servant's job in those days. Peter held back at first. Jesus said he had set them an example, and that they should serve one another too.
Jesus gave thanks and broke the bread, and he shared a cup. He gave them a new command, to love one another. Then they sang a song and went out into the night.
