Blog #10

I read an article all about easter and why its celebrated and such. The article is called, All About Easter(Pascha). Easter as it is know or Pascha as it is sometimes called, is a fairly popular holiday that we celebrate and there is a lot to know about this Holiday. Easter is the feast celebrating Jesus's resurrection from the dead and it is the greatest and oldest feast at the church. Some of the many symbols of easter include the lamb(Christ as a lamb), Lilly as the symbol of the resurrection, empty cross, colored eggs, and a easter bunny for the kids. And some traditions are the bells for celebration, eating lamb on easter dinner, and lighting the paschal candles. I thought easter was a good Holiday to write about because its coming soon!
