JAKARTA - Around 300 people attended the Maundy Thursday Mass at the Regina Pacis Tanjung Pandan Parish Church, Belitung Regency, Bangka Belitung Islands Province.

"The worship service which was attended by hundreds of people went very well and was very solemn," said the leader of the Maundy Thursday Mass of the Regina Pacis Belitung Parish Church, Father Voldo Andreas Situmorang, quoted from Antara, Friday.

He said the Maundy Thursday Mass at the church was carried out while still adhering to health protocols to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

According to him, through Maundy Thursday Mass, Catholics are invited to commemorate the events of Jesus' last supper with his disciples at that time.

"Then the next day after the night of the last supper Jesus suffered," he said.

He added that the last supper also proved that the Lord Jesus gave His love completely to the people.

"As a Catholic, we must interpret our service, live in love and serve one another," he said.
