"Holy Thursday represented a day of service, commemorating the story of the Last Supper, where Christ was said to wash the feet of his disciples. Hicks emphasized, 'What does it mean to wash feet? That we actually love one another, we serve one another. We meet, we see the face of God in each other, and this is happening live right now, right here.'"
"Hicks joined volunteers filling grocery carts with food, embracing the New Yorkers who came through the line, towing grocery carts and reusable bags. His active participation underscored the importance of community engagement during this significant season."
Archbishop Ronald Hicks initiated his first Easter season by partnering with Catholic Charities to distribute food in Washington Heights. Approximately 450 families received fresh produce, protein sources, and canned goods. Hicks highlighted the significance of Holy Thursday as a day of service, reflecting on the Last Supper's message of love and service. He actively participated in the distribution, engaging with the community and speaking Spanish to connect with local residents. His appointment marks a progressive shift in the Archdiocese of New York's leadership.
