Best Good Friday Jokes

31. On Good Friday, a priest went into a barbershop for a haircut. As the barber began to cut his hair, they started chatting about Easter plans. The priest said, “You know, Easter is actually a happy time for us in the Church even though it represents the death of Christ. But we try to look at it more as a celebration of His life.”

The barber replied, “Yeah, I know what you mean. It’s kind of like when someone passes away, we have the funeral but we tell happy stories about the person to remember the joy they brought.”

The priest nodded in agreement. “That’s a nice way to put it. We’re celebrating the Savior’s life on Easter.”

Just then, the barber leaned in with the clippers and accidentally clipped off a bit of the priest’s earlobe. “Oh no!” the barber exclaimed. “I am SO sorry, Father!”

The priest just laughed and said, “That’s ok my son. Just remember, it’s Good Friday!”

32. Three priests decided to go fishing one day after Good Friday services. They got in a boat and went out on the lake. The first priest stepped up to cast his rod when a huge fish came up and pulled him into the water. Surprised, the second priest went to help but another big fish jumped up and dragged him in too. The third priest looked up to the heavens and said, “Oh Lord, grant me the strength to bring my friends out of the water safely.” Just then, the voice of God echoed from above, “My son, just grab that club and hit those fish over their heads.” The priest was puzzled and said, “But Lord, why should I hit those poor fish over their heads?” God replied, “It’s Good Friday my son, time to fast!”

33. After the Good Friday service, a priest was walking home when he passed by a fish market. He stopped to look at the fish selections and couldn’t resist buying a large salmon. He happily carried the fish home in preparation for a delicious dinner. However, he forgot that being Good Friday, he was supposed to be fasting. On his way into the house, his neighbor saw him and said, “Father I’m so disappointed to see you bringing home such a nice fish! Have you forgotten that it’s a day of fasting?” The priest paused and replied, “Why yes, you’re absolutely right. I should not break the fast.” So he walked over and slapped the fish across the face as hard as he could. His neighbor was horrified and yelled, “Father! Why did you hit that poor fish?” The priest calmly replied, “It’s okay, I was just fasting it.”

34. A priest had to fill in and cover a shift for another pastor on Good Friday. He decided to kill some time by going fishing out on a nearby lake.

Before he knew it, he was late for the Good Friday service at the church! He paddled quickly back to shore, gathered up the huge catch of fish, and rushed to get back for the service. Bursting in through the back doors, out of breath with his fishing gear and pile of fish, he announced, “Sorry I’m late everyone, but does anyone know what I should do with all these fish?” The congregation was silent for a moment until someone yelled out, “I think you should slap them against their heads and say ‘Stop eating until Easter!'”

36. After the somber Good Friday service, a priest went golfing to relax and take his mind off things. He got paired up with three other golfers for a foursome. On the first tee, he lined up his drive and swung mightily, but missed the ball completely. “God dammit I missed!” he shouted in frustration. The three other golfers looked at him in shock that a priest would utter such profanity. “Father, you really shouldn’t curse like that,” one man said. The priest apologized and admitted he sometimes forgets himself in the heat of competition. The foursome continued on and soon arrived at the second tee. The priest teed up again, took a big swing, but whiffed a second time. “God dammit I missed again!” he yelled. The three golfers shook their heads disapprovingly. On the third tee, sure enough, the priest completely whiffed once more. “GOD DAMMIT I MISSED AGAIN!!” he screamed at the top of his lungs. Just then a loud voice boomed down from the heavens above: “MY SON, YOU SHOULD WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE AND STOP TAKING MY NAME IN VAIN!” The priest bowed his head reverently and replied, “Sorry Lord. I will watch my words more carefully.” But then he added, “But couldn’t you have told me that on the first hole?”
