Church services include the reading of the Twelve Passion Gospels, processions, and veneration of the Holy Shroud, symbolizing the burial of Christ. The atmosphere is one of solemnity and reverence as the faithful meditate on the profound significance of Christ's sacrifice for the redemption of humanity.
