Manila Archbishop Jose Cardinal Advincula will wash the feet of 12 persons who represent the various sectors that play a crucial role in next month’s elections on Holy Thursday.

CBCP News said among those whose feet the cardinal will be washing at the Manila Cathedral in Intramuros are three first time voters, two members of the Electoral Board and three officials of the Commission on Elections .

There are also three members of the Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting and a member of the press. The Christian tradition of Holy Thursday Mass of the Lord’s Supper includes the washing of the feet of selected individuals to recreate what Christ did to his apostles prior to his crucifixion.

In a pastoral letter released on March 27, the bishops called on voters to elect candidates who will improve the people’s lives, especially the poor and the vulnerable. “We need competent leaders and lawmakers with sincere intentions to serve the welfare of our communities,” said CBCP President and Kalookan Bishop Pablo Virgilio David.
