Good Friday

Good Friday is a religious holiday observed primarily by Christians commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary.

The word "good", used in this context, has a different meaning than is usually considered. It comes from the senses pious or holy.

The exact year of this occurrence appears to be in dispute, but based on what learned beings of the past have recorded, it took place on Friday 3 April AD 33.

Because of this day, McHenry County Offices are closed.
