It was the last time that Jesus spoke with his disciples before the Crucifixion, and he showed them how to consecrate the Eucarist (sic). (by Lordcatz8)
Actually, all he did was ask his disciples to remember what he was about to do. He took the bread and said, "Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me." The Catholics take that literally and say "hoc est enim corpus meum," (Latin for, "for this is my body.") which they believe turns the bread into the actual body of Christ.
The rest of us see the broken bread as a representation of his broken body and remember what he did for us when we have communion.

∙ 14y agoThe last supper has been remembered today through communion. Most denominations in the christian faith have this every few months or so to remember the last supper of Jesus Christ who is also God in the flesh. In communion they replicate the last supper by eating bread and most of the times drinking Grape Juice. The bread stands for the flesh of Jesus or His body and He gives the disciples each a piece of bread to show that they are one and then He gives them a cup of wine and lets them drink of it saying it represents His blood which will be shed on the cross when He dies for all of their and our sins.

Why is Holy Thursday called Holy Thursday?
We celebrate Holy Thursday because it was The Last Supper, and when Jesus washed the feet of the disciples. This was a special day, the day before Jesus was Commended to death. Before all the 15 Stations of the Cross began. Similar to the Last Supper instead of using a long table for Christians, we eat the body of Jesus (the Eucharist) and drink the blood of Jesus (the wine) every Sunday at mass. Every year we repeat these Holy days to show our faith as Christians.
