Supper in an upstairs roomIt was almost Passover, a special meal that remembers how God rescued his people from Egypt. Jesus sent Peter and John ahead to get the supper ready. A man with a water jar led them to a house, and they got an upstairs room ready. At supper Jesus got up, tied a towel around his waist and washed his friends' feet. Peter said Jesus would never wash his feet, but then he laughed and asked to be washed all over. Jesus said that if he, their Teacher, had washed their feet, they should serve one another too. He gave thanks and broke the bread, and he shared a cup with his friends. He gave them a new command, to love one another. At the end they sang a song.
