Christianity Considers this the most important Holy Day

Easter is observed on the first Sunday following the full moon after the vernal equinox. Considered Christianity’s most important holy day, it celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Depending on which calendar a church follows, some will celebrate the holiday earlier than others.



#Easter

Leading up to Easter Sunday is an entire season of observances beginning with Ash Wednesday, Lent’s official beginning. Lent is a time of fasting and reflection, which represents the time Jesus spent in the wilderness for 40 days. Many know this as a time when Christians give something up for Lent.

Then during Holy Week, the Sunday before Easter is known as Palm Sunday. It commemorates Jesus’s entry into Jerusalem on a donkey just five days before the Romans crucified Him. Maundy Thursday remembers Jesus’s last supper; Good Friday is the day of the crucifixion; Holy Saturday is the period between the crucifixion and the resurrection; and Easter Sunday.



HOW TO OBSERVE EASTER

  • Participate in any number of church services.
  • Some churches conduct sunrise services.
  • Dye eggs with children and have an Easter egg hunt.
  • Local communities also hold annual egg hunts, so check your local social media, newspapers, and community listings for dates and times.
  • Use #Easter to share on social media.
