Holy Cross Cathedral marks Good Friday with passionate drama
BY JOHN HOUANIHAU
Hundreds of Christians gathered at Holy Cross cathedral yesterday to mark Good Friday with a solemn crucifixion drama.
Despite the steady rain throughout the morning, the event drew a large crowd of faithful Christians who braved the wet conditions to reflect on the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
Performers displayed Jesus being led to crucifixion, carrying the cross under the watch of Roman soldiers, through the church grounds, reflecting the final moments of Christ’s journey to Calvary, while prayers and hymns echoed among the congregation.
The huge turnout, even in poor weather, showed the deep faith and commitment of believers showing how important the day is to Christians.
Many attendees described the experience as emotional and spiritually inspiring.
The annual observance remains a significant part of the Easter season, reminding Christians of sacrifice, repentance, and forgiveness while uniting the community in shared devotion.
