About this Event

Celebrating our 3RD year in a row at the "Original" Good Friday procession in Little Italy.

We've enjoyed the experience so much we're inviting you to are looking for volunteers this year.

Please feel free to share this event with your friends and families.


DESCRIPTION:


The longest running procession in the city of Toronto has returned for another year. Patrons, friends, family, and all believers get together to retell the story of Jesus Christ, His passion, death and all that happened that fateful Good Friday when our Lord was crucified and died for our sins. This is the story behind the Good Friday Catholic procession which travels around Little Portugal and Little Italy.
