Good Friday

Join us for a solem service marking the commemoration of the crucifixion and death of our Lord Jesus Christ.

"When you come to church on Good Friday, it will feel strangely bare. The linens on the altar and pulpit have been removed, as have the candles and other implements. Some churches even empty the water from the baptismal font. The clergy do not wear vestments on this day, and many churches reduce instrumentation or even sing a capella. Some churches cover their crosses in black mesh or cloth. Congregants often wear black or other muted colors.

These practices fit the somber tone of the day and also reflect details in the crucifixion account, such as the stripping of Jesus’ clothes and his crucifixion outside the city (see Mark 15:21-24).

We also do not celebrate communion on Good Friday, consistent with Jesus’ teaching at the end of the last supper: “I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God” (Mark 14:25)."
