Cardinal Gregory processes with the cross on Good Friday at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle.
The Good Friday liturgy of the Lord’s Passion commemorates the Passion of Christ. During the liturgy, the people will come forward to venerate a crucifix, recalling Christ’s death for our salvation. The tradition dates back to the late 4th century when, according to legend, Helen, the mother of Constantine, discovered the true cross in Jerusalem.

The Mass will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel.
