Foot Washing

Part of Deeper Joy

Themes: Practicing self-care, expressing tenderness, and experiencing humility.

Participants: Any number, in person.

Materials: Warm water and individual containers; option to include soap and lotion.

Participants each wash their own feet, gently scrubbing away the difficulties of the day and offering love and gratitude for all the ways their feet have carried them through life. Remind the group it’s fine to pass or adapt as needed.

Variation: Embrace a biblical tradition by pairing up and washing each other’s feet, demonstrating humility and servant leadership in the spirit of Jesus at the Last Supper.
