EVENTS
& FESTIVALS IN SINGAPORE
Month: March
Good Friday Easter
A movable feast held in March
or April. It is pre-destined on 18 April in 2003, and on 9 April
in 2004.
This feast is considered
important for the Christians as it reminds them of the
crucifixion of Jesus Christ. They gather in Churches in
gratitude of Christ's priceless sacrifice and special prayers
are normally held at St. Joseph's Catholic Church on Victoria
Street. This solemn festival marks the trail and crucification
of Jesus Christ with the Christians holding white candles in
their hands. All these processes are for the commemoration of
holy Jesus Christ.
