DESCRIPTION:A reflective service\, finishing in silence at 3pm. Good Frida
 y is the most sombre day of the Christian calendar when the crucifixion an
 d death of Jesus is commemorated in churches so it can be difficult at fir
 st glance to see what is ‘good’ about it. Some sources suggest that it
  may be a corruption of ‘God’s Friday’ which has evolved over time\;
  more importantly Christians see the death of Jesus as the means by which 
 God’s people are invited to share in new life.\n\nEaster is very importa
 nt to Christians as it is the celebration of Jesus dying for our sins and 
 then rising again. In so doing\, he offers us new life in him. On the thir
 d day after his crucifixion\, Jesus's tomb was found to be empty. He had r
 isen from the dead. Life triumphs over death! The joy of resurrection is p
 ossible only because Christ endured death and conquered it.
