🕊️ What Is Good Friday?

Good Friday (also known as Holy Friday or Easter Friday) is a Christian holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It is observed during Holy Week, the Friday before Easter Sunday.

The day is marked by fasting, prayer, and solemn services. Many Christians attend the Stations of the Cross and observe three hours of silence from noon to 3 PM, representing the hours Jesus was on the cross.

Good Friday is a public holiday in the UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, and most European countries. In the US, it is not a federal holiday but is observed in 12 states. Stock markets and many businesses close.

The name has debated origins. Some believe it derives from "God's Friday," while others say "good" meant holy. The first recorded use of "Guode Friday" appears in a 1290 book called The South English Legendary.
