What is the proper thing to do on the anniversary of a death?

It depends on your beliefs. In the catholic and orthodox churches where there is a belief in purgatory, it is traditional to pray for the souls of the dead, and potentially to have the individual remembered during the mass. In other churches where there is no belief in purgatory this is not done. however visiting the grave seems appropriate if possible.


What do christians eat on Friday?

For centuries, Catholics abstained from eating meat on Friday, as a form of penance. It became the custom to only eat fish. These days, while some traditional Catholics do still follow this custom, it is generally incorporated into part of the Lenten observance, and it also remains popular with older Catholics. But many non-religious Catholics no longer observe this custom as much. Eastern Rite Christians (Greek and Syrian Orthodox, for example) also follow the custom of not eating meat on Friday, and many substitute fish. As for other Christians, many Southern Baptists abstain from meat during Lent, and specifically on Good Friday. Other more moderate denominations such as Unitarians or Congregationalists seem to eat whatever they would normally eat on Fridays. In other words, there is no longer one official set of dietary rules that applies to every denomination.
