LANGFREDAG I HUNDIGE KIRKE

GOOD FRIDAY AT HUNDIGE CHURCH

22 April 2011, 20.00

Good Friday is the darkest and most sinister day of the ecclesiastical year. It is the

day, when we recollect the death of Jesus on the cross. The evensong of Good Friday

is a serious service, which is at the same time a contrast to the joy of ressurection of

Easter Morning, and at the same time fundament for the Ressurection.
