On Good Friday, Jesus Christ died on the cross. He died for us. But he only died in human form. He then arose from the dead on Easter Sunday morning to show us that there is life after death in heaven. Good Friday, also called "Dark Friday", is a day of solemn prayer and the final day of fasting for the long lenten season.

Christ was nailed to the cross at noon. His death came at three o'clock in the afternoon. During this time, christians should spend in prayer and silence.
