Good Friday

Here are a few ways to commemorate Good Friday:

Attend the Liturgy of the Passion: Your parish will likely offer this ceremony at 3PM today to pay reverence to the Cross which God made the tool of our salvation.

Observe interior and exterior silence:  At 12 noon, we should strive to silence our environment if we can; turning off music, limiting conversations, etc. We can commemorate Christ’s three hours of agony on the Cross with this reverent silence.

Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet: Today, the Divine Mercy Chaplet Novena begins. Pray the Chaplet each day for nine days, ending on Divine Mercy Sunday

Pray the Stations of the Cross: This devotion remains one of the central ways in which the Church commemorates Good Friday.
