Christians in Canada and around the world observe this Holy Day in remembrance of the Crucifixion of Jesus. Christians believe that in the person of Jesus, God became one of us, and chose to die for us, as an act of atonement for our sins, and as an act of love for humanity. “…but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Book of Romans, Chapter 5).
