According to JOHN 13
:4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. :5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. :6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? :7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. :8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
:14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; YE ALSO OUGHT TO WASH ONE ANOTHER'S FEET.
(tagalog)
:4 Ay nagtindig sa paghapon, at itinabi ang kaniyang mga damit; at siya'y kumuha ng isang toalya, at ibinigkis sa kaniyang sarili. :5 Nang magkagayo'y nagsalin ng tubig sa kamaw, at pinasimulang hugasan ang mga paa ng mga alagad, at kinuskos ng toalya na sa kaniya'y nakabigkis. :6 Sa gayo'y lumapit siya kay Simon Pedro. Sinabi niya sa kaniya, Panginoon, huhugasan mo baga ang aking mga paa? :7 Sumagot si Jesus at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Ang ginagawa ko'y hindi mo nalalaman ngayon; datapuwa't mauunawa mo pagkatapos. :8 Sinabi sa kaniya ni Pedro, Huwag mong huhugasan ang aking mga paa kailan man. Sinagot siya ni Jesus, Kung hindi kita huhugasan, ay hindi ka magkakaroon ng bahagi sa akin.
:14 Kung ako nga, na Panginoon at Guro, ay naghugas ng inyong mga paa, KAYO NAMAN AY NARARAPAT DING MANGAGHUGASAN NG MGA PAA NG ISA'T ISA.
This is holy practise that every churches should follow as dearest JESUS commanded His people...
It is a form of showing humility, generosity and service to one another as brothers and sisters in Christ..
This doesn't end with just washing of someone's feet and yours being washed by other... A proper way should be observe and put into everyone's heart...
It is said in John 13:15
"For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you."
"Sapagka't kayo'y binigyan ko ng halimbawa, upang gawin naman ninyo ayon sa ginawa ko sa inyo."
What does JESUS did according to verse 4? ... and took a towel, and girded himself. ... at siya'y kumuha ng isang toalya, at IBINIGKIS sa kaniyang sarili.
A towel that girded to him logically means a CLEAN one, not a rug, nor any little piece of clothes... Remember that you're actually doing a holy practisee from holy scripture... It didn't mentioned any color of towel, but since white symbolizes purity, in JMCIM we uses clean white towel...
During foot washing, what we should do? Both should be whispering their prayers for each other...

The person who washes the feet should pray for the person who went through with a lot of struggling in life, to continuously walk with a right path, strengthen him/her as he/she walks through life and could find rest in the LORD... To forgive all the iniquities and shortcomings that he/she committed in the past months and cleanse him/her, making each steps worthy for GOD'S glory...
The person whose being washed should be praying for a person who serves him/her. Pray to bless the person for his/her humility in serving others without minding whom he/she's serving, as he/she obeyed what dearest JESUS commanded... Bless him/her for following our dearest JESUS...
Aside from cleansing under the baptism in water (acts 2:38), washing of feet is part of being with Christ together with remembering him during holy supper as we take the bread and wine with a pure and clean heart..
John 13:8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. JESUS ANSWERED HIM, IF I WASH THEE NOT, THOU HAST NO PART WITH ME....
Jn 13:8 Sinabi sa kaniya ni Pedro, Huwag mong huhugasan ang aking mga paa kailan man. SINAGOT SIYA NI JESUS, KUNG HINDI KITA HUHUGASAN, AY HINDI KA MAGKAKARON NG BAHAGI SA AKIN....
All the highest Praise,Glory, Honor & Worship belongs to our dearest JESUS..
