Good Friday Services?

[Baptist Believer]

Does you church have a Good Friday service?

If so, what is it like?

Our church usually conducts a Baptist version of a Tenebrae service, with readings of the "Suffering Servant" passages of Isaiah, readings from the Gospels regarding the crucifixion, musical reflections on the events and meaning of the crucifixion, and the gradual extinguishing of the candles at key points of the service until the room is dark. Then worshippers leave in silence and wait for the resurrection.

If I had a church, we'd be celebrating the three hours with worship, praise and prayer. Good question. Not many services any more, at least in Cali.

We are having one. In fact, the idiot typing right now is going to deliver the sermon.
