The Liturgy of Good Friday

for 1 hour, 30 mins

The Liturgy of Good Friday commemorates the Passion and Death of Jesus Christ. It is a solemn service marked by prayer, readings, and veneration of the cross. The liturgy includes three parts: the Liturgy of the Word (with the reading of the Passion narrative), the Veneration of the Cross, and Holy Communion (using pre-consecrated hosts from Maundy Thursday). The service ends in silence, reflecting the solemnity of Christ’s sacrifice.
