Orthodox Christians observe Friday the day before the last of the Holy week – Good Friday – the day when Jesus Christ was crucified.
On Good Friday, many Orthodox Christian churches hold special liturgies with readings from the Gospels of the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his last moments of the life.
Many Orthodox Christians observe Good Friday with fasting and prayer because Good Friday is a day of spiritual purification.
