Good Friday - The Passion of the Lord - more of the past remembered


Father, into your hands I commend my spirit. 


The service was at 3.00 pm but the faithful were early filling OMPH Church as early by 2.30 pm. 


The Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ… Let Us Pray..for the Holy Church, the Pope, the Catechumens, Unity of Christians, those who do not believe in Christ, those in public office. 


“A man can have no greater love than to lay down his life for his friends”


....Behold the Wood of the Cross…..Come, Let Us Adore


Adoration of the Cross….first the Celebrant followed by the clergy, altar servers and Eucharistic Ministers

The Celebrant takes the Cross standing at the Altar, invites the faithful to adore the Holy Cross in silence.


After unveiling the Cross it is placed at a suitable place…candles are placed on the right and left side of the Cross…


Preparation for Communion.........The Alter is covered with cloth and the corporal and book are placed on it….



After the celebration the Alter is stripped and Individual Adoration of the Holy Cross begins




Happy Good Friday........we are saved.
