Easter


Easter is the single most important holy day throughout Christianity.

It celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ — a central belief for Christians worldwide and the focal point of their faith. Religious scholars believe the event occurred three days after the Romans crucified Jesus in roughly 30 AD. Christians therefore derive hope that they too will experience a resurrection in heaven.

Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after March 21. For 2024, Easter is on March 31.

Easter is celebrated with numerous traditions and customs worldwide comprising of attending church services, taking part in special liturgies, organizing egg hunts for children, and sharing festive meals with friends and family. Families join together to eat together, give gifts, and take part in a variety of customs, such as Easter bonnet decorating and egg hunts.
