We enter the now mournful day of Holy Week today, Good Friday, with the faithful preparing to solemnly enter the churches for the Epitaph procession.

After the Service of the Deposition at noon on Good Friday, the Holy Saturday service is celebrated in the evening, including the eulogies at the Epitaph and the procession of the Epitaph.

The service usually begins at 19:00, while the procession of the Epitaph through the streets of each parish begins around 21:00 or a little earlier, although this depends on each church

Many churches or dioceses make sure to post announcements about this in a prominent place in their courtyards or on their websites.
