The Orthodox Church celebrates today Holy Thursday, which is related to the establishment of the Sacrament of Holy Communion.

According to the Gospel, the Lord gave the disciples the Holy Communion for the first time on this day, establishing the Sacrament of the Eucharist.

This day falls on the Thursday before Easter, commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles.

The service is being conducted at all active churches across Georgia.
