Maundy Thursday Minimize
 

 

 
Visita Iglesias ushers the morning of Maundy Thursday. People start early to visit as many churches or chapels as possible. The number of churches to be visited varies. Some would do seven, others twelve, while still others fourteen – each church or chapel to represent a station in the Via Crucis. In the olden days, people usually do the Visita Iglesias on foot as a sacrifice or religious vow to earn graces and indulgences. But now, taking the public or private transportation is acceptable.
Maundy Thursday is also concluded by a Holy Mass to commemorate the Last Supper and the Washing of the Apostle’s Feet.
