Good Friday (of the Lord’s Passion), is the second day of the Easter Triduum and the day that Catholics and other Christians throughout the world commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus.
The Good Friday liturgy has three parts: the Liturgy of the Word, the Veneration of the Cross, and the Service of Communion. On Good Friday we do not celebrate Mass. The Eucharist that is received on Good Friday was consecrated a day earlier at the Holy Thursday liturgy.
During Good Friday service, Catholics go up to the front of the church to kiss a cross. This act is called Veneration of the Cross and in which Catholics honour the great sacrifice Jesus made on the cross. At the end of the Good Friday service the ministers and assembly depart in silence. Watch the entire service celebrated by Archbishop William Goh which includes a homily.

► PARTICIPATION OF MASSES THROUGH MEDIA
LIVE broadcasts of Masses via the Internet help Catholics to pray and is especially useful with those who are homebound, sick or cannot attend Mass for valid reasons.
"... those who hear or view these broadcasts should be aware that, under normal circumstances, they do not fulfill the obligation of attending Mass. Visual images can represent reality, but they do not actually reproduce it.(177) While it is most praiseworthy that the elderly and the sick participate in Sunday Mass through radio and television, the same cannot be said of those who think that such broadcasts dispense them from going to church and sharing in the eucharistic assembly in the living Church." (57. SACRAMENTUM CARITATIS. Pope BENEDICT XVI)
