On Good Friday, the saddest day for Christians, the liturgy commemorates the suffering, crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ, who sacrificed himself for the guilt and sins of humanity. The service at the Metropolitan Cathedral "St. Nedelya" in Sofia was led by His Holiness Daniil, Patriarch of Bulgaria and Metropolitan of Sofia.
At 6:00 PM, Patriarch Daniil will lead the Service of the Burial of Christ at the "St. Nedelya" Cathedral, announced the Sofia Metropolitanate. When asked what the faithful should remember about the sacrifice of the Savior and what He did for humanity, Patriarch Daniil replied that we should not be ashamed of the Cross of Christ, we should not be ashamed of the truth, because the cross is power, because on the cross the Lord defeated sin and the devil. ''The Cross is not the end. The Cross is the path to the Resurrection", Said Patriarch Daniil. "We should not fear or be ashamed of our faith, yet many Orthodox Christians today feel uneasy about expressing it. But why do we feel uneasy? Because someone suffered innocently for us? Because someone gave us life and gifted us resurrection?", Patriarch Daniil asked rhetorically.
