Easter

Easter is the principal feast day of the Christian religion, in which Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Beginning with the period of prayer and fasting known as Lent, the Easter season culminates in Easter Week, which observes Christ's final passion. Palm Sunday commemorates Christ's entry into Jerusalem to celebrate the Jewish festival of Passover, Good Friday, His crucifixion, and Easter Sunday the Christian belief in the ascension of Jesus from the dead on the third day.
