Mangalore, Apr 10: Good Friday, the crucification of Jesus Christ was observed by Christians across the Mangalore diocese on April 10.

Churches across the diocese organized special prayers and masses.

The faithful attended prayers in their respective churches and took out processions to mark the crucification of Jesus Christ .

Many non-Christians too participated in the mass services and prayed for universal peace and prosperity.



The Fermai parishioners of St Antony's Church enacted the scenes of the Way of the Cross and passion of Christ, under the leadership of the parish priest Fr Sylvester D'Costa.

The exact year of Good Friday has been estimated as AD 33, by two different groups, and originally as AD 34 by Isaac Newton via the differences between the Biblical and Julian calendars and the crescent of the moon.

    Very good service of the crucifiction of Jesus. It is a eye opener for those who hate the human in the name of religion, politics and others. Jesus will heal many of those who create troubles using political ways, hate the brothers/sisters of thier choice.
