Friday of Holy Week has traditionally been called Good Friday or Holy Friday. On this day the Church commemorates Jesus' arrest, his trial, Crucifixion, suffering, death and burial. The Holiest of Holy days. Since Church services on this day are to observe Jesus' death, there is traditionally no Communion on Good Friday.Last night in Churches all over the world, alters will have been stripped of their coverings, crosses and candles. The chancel and alter coverings will have been replaced with black coverings and all candles are extinguished. They are left this way through Saturday, but will be replaced with white before sunrise on Sunday ..........
