Christians all across the world mark Good Friday as a solemn day. It’s the Friday before Easter, and it’s a day of mourning for Christians. Every year on Good Friday, Christians commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Today is a day of mourning and repentance. This day is significant for Christians all over the world because it commemorates the arrest of Jesus Christ in the garden of Gethsemane and his execution by Pontius Pilate, the governor of the Roman province of Judaea.
Because Easter does not have a set day for celebration, Good Friday, the day before Easter, changes every year. Good Friday is observed according to the lunar calendar, with the first full moon occurring following the spring equinox, signalling the start of the spring season.
Easter is regarded as one of the Christian community’s most auspicious days. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is commemorated on this day. Christians remember Jesus Christ’s resurrection by celebrating the Easter festival on the first Sunday after the first full moon of spring, following the solemn observance of Holy Week, which commemorates the events that led to his arrest and crucifixion in Jerusalem. This means that Easter has no set date and can be celebrated anytime between March 22 and April 25. The festival will be held on April 17 this year.
