HAPPY EASTER



Easter is a holy holiday that commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ three days after his death by crucifixion some 2,000 years ago. For Christians, Easter is a day of holy services and the get-together of family. In many churches Easter is preceded by a season of prayer, and fasting called Lent. This is observed in memory of the 40 days' fast of Christ in the desert. Bunny, egg and white lilies are common symbol in celebrate Easter.





Holy Week in Christianity is the last week of Lent and the week before Easter. It includes the holy holidays of Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday (Holy Thursday) and Good Friday, and lasts from Palm Sunday (or in the Eastern, Lazarus Saturday),but not including, Easter Sunday, as Easter Sunday is the first day of the new season of The Great Fifty Days. It commemorates the last week of the earthly life of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Canonical gospels.
