Pope carries wood cross in observing Good Friday
Pope Paul VI navigated a drizzly Good Friday procession in Rome with a frail walk due to arthritis. He then prepared for a two hour vigil and midnight mass at St Peter's, before Easter morning rituals and the Urbi et Orbi blessing. The Way of the Cross drew about 75,000 worshippers despite rain as a priest carried the cross through 14 stations, with the Pope steadying himself at the 13th station. He urged Christians to seek strength in the wisdom of the cross.

British expert calls Ugandan archbishop crash a fake
London police investigator Sgt. Mike Davies says the February Kampala car crash reported to have killed Uganda Anglican Archbishop Janani Luwum was staged. He reviewed Ugandan photos of the vehicles and argues the damage could not come from the alleged collision. Church leaders say Luwum and two former cabinet ministers were murdered by Idi Amin's security forces.
