In Pictures: Churches empty on Good Friday
Today is Good Friday, which commemorates the crucifiction of Jesus Christ and his death. Normally, places of Christian worship would be teeming with devotees today.
However, owing to the outbreak of COVID-19, churches and pilgrimage sites around the country remain empty this Easter. The images below are from Calvary Church in Mundalama.
