Today is Good Friday, a perfect day to share the beautiful and inspirational quotes and verses from the Bible. On Good Friday, Christians across the world commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Traditions on Good Friday, also called Holy Friday and Black Friday, include prayers, fasting and almsgiving or charity. Mother Teresa, the founder of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity and one of the 20th Century's greatest humanitarians, had said, "I believe in person to person. Every person is Christ to me, and since there is only one Jesus, that person is the one person in the world at that moment". Mother Teresa was canonized as Saint Teresa of Calcutta in 2016.
