SUMMARY:Season of Easter
DESCRIPTION:WHAT IS IT?\nWe celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. The most important moment in the Christian calendar\, and the first liturgical celebration enacted. The Christian calendar radiates from this centre\, and every Sunday from the Resurrection onwards is celebrated as a “Little Easter”. Easter Sunday concludes the three-day long liturgy of the Easter Triduum. \nWHY DO WE CELEBRATE IT?\nWe rejoice that Jesus has conquered death\, and reality has been irrevocably transformed into a post-resurrection reality. Life will never be the same again\, and we are now an Easter people who share in the new life Jesus gives. \nCALCULATING EASTER\nEaster is calculated with reference to the Hebrew Passover\, since that is when Jesus was crucified. The Passover itself is a moving date based on the lunar calendar; the date of Easter thus varies each year. \nWHAT DO WE DO?\nWe greet one another with the acclamation “Alleluia! Christ is risen! He is risen indeed\, alleluia!”. We keep an Easter Vigil the night before\, reflecting on God’s saving work in Christ. \nWhite is used as a symbol of joy \nWe begin the day with a sunrise service \nBaptisms are often conducted \nHEBREW AND PAGAN SOURCES\nChristians often present new meanings to cultural practices\, Easter is a word that comes from the pagan spring festival Oestre. Pasch\, a term referring to both the Hebrew Passover festival (Pesach) and Passover lamb took on Christian nuances to refer to the Resurrection and the true Passover Lamb. \nREFERENCES \n\nLathrop\, Gordon.
