Orthodox Good Friday is a solemn and contemplative day observed by Eastern Orthodox Christians, marking the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. It is a day of deep reflection on the Passion of Christ, as believers mourn the sacrificial death on the cross. 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. Orthodox Good Friday is part of the Holy Week leading up to the celebration of Christ's resurrection on Easter Sunday.
