Good Friday in the community: Celebrate the suffering of Jesus with us!

karmette, junction and for families with children as well as Good Friday liturgy

Good Friday, which is celebrated this year on April 18, is a central component of the Christian calendar and is reminiscent of the suffering and dying of Jesus Christ. The day begins at 9:00 a.m. with a carmette that is celebrated in the high choir under the direction of Msgr. Bernhard Auel. This offers believers a silent and contemplative opportunity to think about the deeper meaning of this day. The musical accompaniment is carried out by the Münsterschola under Sylvia Dörnemann, creating a solemn atmosphere.

Following the karmette, the junction and family -friendly events take place, which start at 10.30 a.m. and 11 a.m. These crossroads are aimed at actively involved in both younger and older generations in the spirituality of the day and help them to record the basic idea of ​​Good Friday and to experience community.

at 3 p.m., at the end of the death of Jesus, the central Good Friday liturgy begins. In this liturgical celebration, the passion of Jesus is read, followed by the worship of the cross and the great intercession, which give the day a deeper spiritual dimension. It is a time of silent commemoration and prayer. The sermon is kept by the city dean, which in his speech takes up and encourages the challenges and hopes of the believers.

The musical design during the liturgy takes over Markus Karas, regional and münster cantor, and is accompanied by the Chorus Cantate Domino and Claudia Schoppmann. These musical contributions are crucial for the atmosphere of the day and support the community members in their prayer and reflection.

Overall, Good Friday not only offers a space for grief and reflection, but also an opportunity for the believers to come together in community and to share faith. The events address people of all ages and promote an understanding of the suffering of Christ within the Christian tradition of belief.
