The cross is a reminder of the Crucifixion and death of Jesus. During Holy Week, which is part of the 40-day season of Lent, Christians focus on the last days of Jesus Christ on earth. Today is Good Friday, the most solemn of days in the Christian calendar, when Jesus' suffering and death are remembered. Lent is the season of repentance and reflection that prepares Christians for Easter, the celebration of Jesus' resurrection and the salvation of sinners. |
