Good Friday is a very holy day in Greece. People will come to the church to pray and the bells will ring slow. In the evening, a procession will leave the church, going round the neighbourhood streets. Everyone will be out, to watch and follow behind. At the head of the procession, there will be a bier, which will be decorated with many flowers and an icon of Christ. It represents the path Jesus' followers took, removing his body off the cross and taking it to the grave. It is called Epitafios.
