Good Friday

Good Friday is a Christian holiday of profound significance, commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his subsequent death at Calvary. Observed during Holy Week as a part of the Paschal Triduum, it is a day marked by deep sorrow, penance, and fasting for Christians worldwide. The day is called "Good" not because of the tragic events it remembers, but because Christians believe that through his ultimate sacrifice, Jesus took upon himself the sins of the world. His death is seen as the culmination of God's plan to offer salvation to humanity, which leads to his resurrection on Easter Sunday—the ultimate victory of life over death and good over evil.
