Good Friday and Easter Religious Events in Geneva, IL
It's always good to post religious events on Geneva Patch, but there's no better time than Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
One of the good things about Geneva Patch is that it offers a place for everyone in the community to post events. There is no charge, and it's just a good thing for the community and the religious organization to post your event on a community bulletin board.
Good Friday is, of course, one of the most important days on the Christian calendar. It commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. Many churches hold special service and programs, including the stations of the cross.
Easter Sunday is the culminating event for people of the Christian faith. It celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day after his crucifixion at Calvary as described in the New Testament.
