Greetings to all Сhristians celebrating the "holiest" feast of all - Easter. It's the day when Jesus Christ ressurected from the dead, three days after his crucifixion.
Besides its main perceiving, Easter is the time for changes to better, towards positive tendencies. Poeple forgive each other's faults, and celebrate the feast harmoniously.
Peace to all Europe :ange

Wait, is this one of those holidays where Orthodox Christians celebrate at a different time? :quoi
Happy Easter everyone!
The Orthodox Christians had celebrations at the 19th of April. :ange

Indeed, Orthodox celebrate Christmas after the Julian (old) calendar, while Catholics follow the Gregorian (new) calendar. So almost every year Catholics celebrate Easter earlier than the Orthodox. Yet, in 2010 both parts of the Christian religion will celebrate Easter on April 4.

I once had the occasion to celebrate Easter in western Europe. I was surprised to see how people tackle this feast. They are genuine God-believers and they use to spend big amounts for celebrating it. The atmosphere is cheerful and lifts up the mood in the entire region.
