Jesus!
Jesus had died for the mass in view of the fact that, if God had not send Jesus to earth, Catholicism would not have developed. If Jesus was not sent to earth and we had not heard his teachings through The Bible, people would not know of 'the father, the son, and the holy spirit'. Catholics go to church and there they learn the teachings of Jesus Christ in the holy mass. There wouldn't be mass, if there wasn't a prophet Jesus. However because of Jesus, Catholicism has developed and we know more about God by going to mass and learning through Jesus' teachings.
and
ST. Peter
Peter was crucified at Rome with his head downwards, as he had desired to suffer. He was the first pope of the church and had died for the mass. When Jesus asks Peter '' who do people say that the Son of Man is?'' peter replies, ''you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.'' In turn, Jesus declares Peter to be "blessed" for having recognized Jesus' true identity. Jesus then says, "On this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it." Peter is the rock which the church is built on, were without the rock there would be no church. Without the rock there would be no mass.
Catholic AnswerThere is no Mass on Good Friday, this is the one day of the year where Mass is never celebrated in the Catholic Church. There is a service at 3 pm because this is the time of day that Our Blessed Lord died, it used to be called the Mass of the Presanctified as the Hosts for Holy Communion were consecrated on Holy Thursday. The Good Friday Liturgy includes the reading of the Passion, the Veneration of the Cross, and Holy Communion, but no Mass.
Nope,the correct answer is The HOLY MASS is the highest form of PRAYER.............
Holy Communion or Holy Eucharist
It's a Holy Mass, so they just participate in it. It's more solemn Holy Mass then usually on Sundays.
The Mass of the Chrism.
The only day holy communion is not distributed is on Good Friday, the same day there is no mass. The only church on Good Friday is the adoration, which doesn't include communion and isn't counted as mass. It is a "continuation" of the mass on Holy Thursday, which isn't ended until the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday.Correction:Communion is distributed on Good Friday using hosts consecrated at the Mass on Holy Thursday. It is not distributed on Holy Saturday until the vigil Mass that evening.
Yes it is a holy day of obligation.Actually, Holy Thursday, as well as Good Friday and Holy Saturday, is not a Holy day of Obligation. However, the church urges you to attend mass on these days, and it requires you to attend on Easter.
A Priest is the leader in prayer during the mass.
The Church calls the day that Our Blessed Lord died Good Friday. Good Friday is the only day of the year when Mass cannot be celebrated in the Roman Rite, and a liturgy called the Mass of the Presanctified is celebrated in which Parishioners are given Holy Communion that was consecrated on Holy Thursday.
There is no Mass on Good Friday and the communion distributed that day was consecrated at the Holy Thursday Mass. In pre-Vatican II times it was called the Mass of the Presanctified. There is no Mass until the Easter Vigil Mass on Holy Saturday.
Holy Mass is never celebrated on Good Friday, the day of Our Blessed Lord's death on the cross, instead, the Cross is venerated, intercessions are offered, and Holy Communion is given that was consecrated the day before on Holy Thursday.
