Hi! I'm just curious what all of you do on Good Friday. Do you attend a service? What kind of service does your church hold? Does it tend toward solemn or joyful, traditional or contemporary? Are there any unique things your church does to observe the day?
My church is kind of in transition between pastors, so things were a little different this year. We had communion along with contemporary music and a sermon and it was less solemn. But in the past it was more solemn, the instruments were removed from the sanctuary, conversations were quiet and brief, we had a sermon, and we sang a mixture of hymns and contemporary songs.
One year there was a real sheep outside in a fenced area and they used to cover all the bulletin boards and literature racks with purple cloths to remove extra distractions.
So how about you?
