How we’re observing Good Friday

Good Friday is a Christian holiday that observes the death of Jesus Christ. It’s a key part of Holy Week and also the last important event before Easter, which recognizes Jesus’ resurrection. To honor the day, many Christians observe a fast and/or abstain from eating meat. Many also attend church services.

In addition to being a religious holiday, Good Friday is also a public holiday—and, as such, schools and many businesses are closed.

How to Prepare

• We’re going to be closed for Good Friday—which means it’s a long weekend. Make sure to switch on your out-of-office before the end of the day on Thursday.
