This is the most important religious celebration in the Christian year. Christians gather on Easter Sunday to celebrate the resurrection of Christ three days after his Crucifixion. Hallelujah Christ is Risen!!
We don't have a Sunrise service in these parts. It is a service where Christians gather together on a hillside to see the sun rise on Easter morning. I have only been to one, when I lived in England, and it is the most remarkable feeling of freedom, and humility I have ever experienced.
Easter Sunday also marks the end of Lent. So all you people ( you know who you are) that have been asking me 'How much longer?' can tuck into your chocolate or whatever you have given up for six and a half weeks. Today's the day!
The first Easter eggs were bird’s eggs. They were painted bright colours to give them a more special meaning as a gift. Today, we give chocolate eggs. Enjoy!
