White Thursday is usually celebrated before Easter. White Thursday itself is the day before Jesus will leave his life. On this Thursday, Christians also have a tradition of commemorating the Last Supper led by Jesus. In addition, all believers together remember the moment when Jesus had his last supper with his disciples.
At that time, Jesus called his disciples to come and have the supper. In the supper, Jesus washed the feet of his disciples one by one. This event symbolizes the teaching of serving others.

Good Friday is a commemoration before Easter Sunday. It is the day to commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Good Friday also signifies the day of Jesus Christ's death on the cross after being tried in the Sanhedrin or also known as the Supreme Court of the Jews.
Before being crucified, Jesus experienced many atrocities such as whipping, humiliation, and even carrying a very heavy cross. Eventually, Jesus was crucified. The death of Jesus on the cross is believed by Christians as a form of redemption for the sins of humanity, hence it is called Good Friday.
