Good Friday takes us to the cross, where we meditate on God's self-giving love for our salvation. The liturgy is stark, poignant, and deeply meaningful.
Good Friday is the most solemn and poignant event of Holy Week, an immersive experience of the last few days of Jesus' life leading up to his crucifixion. The death of Jesus Christ is the central, pivotal event of the Christian faith. In his death, we face our own. In his sacrifice, we learn who we are. In his suffering, we find a seed of hope.
