Morning Prayer - FRIDAY, 07 Apr 2023

LISTEN | Morning Prayer - April 7, 2023 | Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion

"It is accomplished; and bowing his head he gave up his spirit." - John 19:30

Today the whole Church mourns the death of our Savior. This is traditionally a day of sadness, spent in fasting and prayer. We should try to find ways to slow down and have more quiet to contemplate this solemn day. Many people take time off from work and school to participate in the devotions and liturgy of the day as much as possible. Some families leave house dark and maintain some silence during the 3 hours (noon — 3p.m.), and keep from loud conversation or activities throughout the remainder of the day. Other ideas for keeping the day solemn is restricting ourselves from any outside entertainment—TV, music, computer, phones, social media, games—these are all types of technology that can distract us from the spirit of the day.
