Good Friday

Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Day, on which the church commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus. It is a day of fasting and special acts of discipline and self-denial.

In the early church, candidates for baptism at the Easter Vigil, joined by others, fasted for a day or two before the Paschal [Easter] feast. In the West, the first of those days eventually acquired the character of historical reenactment of the passion and death of Christ.

The liturgy of the day includes the following:

  • John’s account of the Passion gospel
  • A solemn form of intercession known as the solemn collects, dating from ancient Rome
  • Optional devotions before the cross, commonly known as the Veneration of the Cross

The Eucharist is not celebrated in the Episcopal Church on this day. Holy Communion may be administered from the reserved sacrament at the Good Friday service.

The Episcopal Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, reaching out to the world.

Church of the Redeemer

Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world around us. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.

Church of the Redeemer is at 6210 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. The campus is a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.

The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
