FATHER: The word ‘Maundy' is from a French word that means ‘mandate' or ‘command.' They use that word because Jesus told us that He wanted us to do what He did - to remember Him with the Last Supper. 
BRIANNA: Is that what Communion is? 
FATHER: Yes. Once a month we celebrate Communion at our church. That's when you see me take the bread and drink from the cup. 
BRIANNA: But why did they have it tonight? 
FATHER: Because tonight we are remembering the actual day that Jesus had His last supper with the disciples. You see, tomorrow is the sad day when we remember Jesus died on the cross. 
BRIANNA: Then, why do they call it Good Friday? 
FATHER: No one's sure, but some think that it was originally called ‘God's Friday' but it was changed over time. But, you can also say that Jesus died for our good. 
JESSIE: Why did Jesus have to die? 
FATHER: That's a really good question, Jessie. It's also a really hard question to answer, but try to look at it this way: what happens when you do something wrong? 
JESSIE: You get mad at me? 
FATHER: And? 
AMBER: You send her to her room. 
FATHER: Exactly. You have to be punished for the things you do wrong. It's the same way with God. We all do things that God doesn't want us to do. God calls those things ‘sin.' And He tells us that we have to die for those things. 
BRIANNA: (incredulous) We have to die?
