The Good Friday choral liturgy will be held in the Nave at 7:00pm on Friday, March 29, 2024.
The Friday before Easter Day, on which the church commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus. It is a day of fasting and special acts of discipline and self-denial. In the early church candidates for baptism, joined by others, fasted for a day or two before the Paschal feast. In the west the first of those days eventually acquired the character of historical reenactment of the passion and death of Christ.
Choral Music:
Bob Chilcott: Jesus, my Leman
Victoria: The Reproaches
Jacob Handl: Ecce quomodo moritur
F. Melius Christiansen: Lamb of God
