Good Friday is one of the most solemn days in the Christian calendar, marking the day when Jesus Christ was crucified and died on the cross for the redemption of humanity. The Good Friday service is a solemn and reflective service that remembers the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The Passion of Christ is read, recounting the events of Jesus' trial, suffering, and death. The service culminates with the Veneration of the Cross, where the faithful approach the cross and offer prayers and veneration, reflecting on the significance of Jesus' sacrifice. Good Friday is a day of fasting and abstinence for many, and the solemnity of the service reflects the gravity of the occasion.
