How we celebrate Good Friday in our parish Usually there is a procession with the cross being brought into the church and placed in a place of honour. The cross used to be a sign of shame but since Jesus died on a cross it has become a holy symbol to be treated with great respect. People come to the church to honour the cross. Parishes have their own rituals but most have a time for the people to come forward to kiss the cross to show much they love Jesus and appreciate that he died to save us. Sometimes people come up and place their hands on the cross to show it is a very special symbol to think about today. This is called venerating the cross. It is done in different ways by Christians all over the world on Good Friday. Pope Francis venerates the cross and leads all the people of Rome to show special honour to Jesus on Good Friday. It is a holy day for people to be close to Jesus and remember the times they have not spoken or acted with love and to tell Jesus they are sorry for this. Click the pictures to reveal text R-3 S-09
