Sri Lankan bishops insist on Holy Thursday washing of women’s feet
Sri Lankan bishops have instructed priests to follow Pope Francis' decree of including women in the washing of the feet during Mass on Holy Thursday. "Pastors may select for the washing of the feet, a small group of the faithful to represent in variety and unity each part of the people of God," said Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith of Colombo, president of the Sri Lankan bishops' conference, in a statement Feb. 19. "Such small groups can be made up of men and women, and it is appropriate that they consist of people young and old, healthy and sick, clerics, consecrated men and women and laity," said the cardinal, archbishop of Colombo.
