Notes:
- At Last Supper disciples' conversation of who would be the greatest
- Jesus sent disciples to find water and prepare for Passover meal
- Greatness is not each gift on higher shelf, but stoop down for next gift
- The Son of Man came to serve, not to be served
- He loved to the very end, challenges us to do the same
- Washing of disciples feet
- Pay your debts as they are owed
- Story of visit to Michael in hospital; man with HIV, lead to salvation
- We need to get out there where Jesus is, where people are in need
- We step over basin (water) for convenience, time, etc.
- We need to reach not only to the poor/down and out, but the rich
