Good Friday processions in Baliwag

Good Friday processions in Baliuag or Holy Week procession in Baliuag, Bulacan is an event taking place in Holy Week, in a traditional Roman Catholic culture of the St. Augustine Parish Church of Baliuag.

In the Philippines, Good Friday[nb 1][1] while others contend that it is a corruption of "God Friday".[2] is a religious holiday observed primarily by Christians commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. The holiday is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, Black Friday,[3] or Easter Friday,[4][5][6] though the latter properly refers to the Friday in Easter week.
