Third, the Last Supper Meme of the Year is definitely:

Fourth, Six Maundy Thursday Jams That Aren’t “Sweet Cherry Wine”

1. The Last Supper – Johnny Cash
2. Sister I Need Wine – Guided by Voices
3. Yea! Heavy and a Bottle of Bread – Bob Dylan
4. (Gotta Get) A Meal Ticket – Elton John
5. Pass Me Down the Wine – Oasis
6. Hollywood – Tobias Jesso Jr

Bonus Track/Sermon: “Spiritual Podiatry”
