Good Friday comes barely a week after Palm Sunday, which marked the triumphal entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem. Many Christians have over the Lent period been fasting, praying and asking for repentance and meditation on the agony and suffering of Jesus Christ on the cross and what this means for their faith. Many Pentecostal Churches are also holding conventions that would end on Easter Monday.
