Good Friday

Crucifixion by Diego Velázquez

The church is open today from 3pm-2am for Good Friday.



The following is borrowed from saintgeorgechaldean's blog that some may find useful:

• A Catholic/Orthodox tradition is to visit Seven different churches on Good Friday to honor the Seven Dolors of the Virgin Mary and kiss the feet of Christ on the cross.
  
• Another new tradition is to begin praying the Novena of Divine Mercy from Good Friday until Divine Mercy Sunday.
  
• Some churches also proceed the Stations of the Cross on Good Friday as well.
