Q and A Christian Easter
If Easter brings to mind colorful eggs hidden throughout the yard or big fluffy bunnies, then perhaps you really are not that familiar with what Easter truly means too many people. For Christians it is a day of celebration and one that deeply marks their faith in their religion. Christian Easter is about far more than colorful baskets filled with fake grass. It marks an important date and is celebrated in many different ways. Though the eggs are definitely a part of the day in some areas of the world, it is the meaning behind Easter that has Christians celebrating. If you are not familiar with Easter or just want to know more about this religious holiday, this article can help. It may answer some of the questions you may have about Easter and even be able to help you educate your children or others on the significance of this day.
When is Christian Easter celebrated?
Christian Easter is celebrated three days after Good Friday. It typically falls in April. In 2010 the date will be April 4th. Easter is one of many religious days that come together consecutively. It begins with Palm Sunday, goes through Good Friday (the day that Christ was hung from the cross and died) and ends with Easter. During those times people will honor their faith through a variety of customs. Some will fast and attend church services through the week leading up to Easter. Others may only attend Mass or church on Easter Sunday itself. Easter also takes place after Passover is completed. Passover is a Jewish holiday. You do need to know that Easter is moveable holiday or feast. It varies depending on the calendar year.
How do people celebrate Christian Easter?
People celebrate Christian Easter in a variety of ways. Some dress up and attend church services. Some hold huge family gatherings where everyone eats and catches up with one another. There really is no right and wrong way to celebrate the day. It is up to your own personal beliefs on how you celebrate it. One person may only attend religious services on certain holidays. Another may attend regularly. Some celebrate with colored eggs and chocolates. Easter is celebrated differently across the world.
How is Christian Easter celebrated across the world?
Different countries celebrate Christian Easter differently. Some hold contests after their religious service has ended. These contests can involve egg knocking or rolling eggs across a lawn. Some countries keep their church bells silent on the days leading up to Easter. And once Easter has arrived the bells begin to toll in celebration of Christ arising from the grave for mankind. There are also different foods offered up on Easter that may not be served during the rest of the year. Probably one of the oddest customs found on Easter is the whipping of women in Slovakia and eastern Moravia. The men take willow rods and gently spank their mates or women so that the women can keep beautiful and healthy throughout the year.
How can I teach my child more about Christian Easter?
What you choose to teach your child about Christian Easter all depends on what you, yourself, believe. If you are a devoted follower of the bible then you will want to teach your child about the life and death of Jesus Christ. But how much you teach your child all depends on how old your child is and how much he or she can comprehend. You may want to start off slowly and teach your child about some of the deeds and stories Christ did and told to his followers. As your child gets older and can comprehend more, you can begin teaching him or her about how Christ died for mankind's sins and how he rose from the grave three days later.
