Do this one thing to observe Good Friday

Good Friday or Holy Friday is observed around the globe to remember the judgement, persecution and crucifixion of Christ. Christians observe Good Friday as a day of mourning and remembering the sacrifice of Christ.

Among Christians, the sacrifice of Christ for mankind and the significance of his final days is worthy of reflection at this time.

They do so in a number of ways including fasting, special prayers, and visiting churches. Some churches hold a special service to mark this day such as the Stations of the Cross or Way of the Cross.

Among these is forgotten tradition of watching films about the life and death of Christ with family and friends. These films are usually enjoyed by those who don't share in the Christian faith.

So add one to your watch list for Good Friday with your family or friends.

In fact, The Passion of Christ is played free open-air in Trafalgar Square in London every year on Good Friday. You can enjoy it live stream if you have a Facebook account.
