Easter Sunday always falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after the vernal equinox. That changes every year, so Good Friday falls on a different date each year, on anything from the 20th of March to the 23rd of April.

Why do all given dates which fall on Friday always fall on a Wednesday four years later?

Within any 4 year period, there is always a leap year. That causes a day to be skipped. So after 4 years, a date will be on a day 5 days after the one it was on 4 years before that. Wednesday is 5 days after Friday, so if a date is on a Friday, 4 years later it will be on a Wednesday.
