Easter is a Christian festival to commemorate Jesus' crucifixion and his resurrection three days later. It is a combination of Christianity and ancient so-called pagan customs. It is said that the word Easter comes from the name Eostre, the goddess of dawn in Anglo-Saxon mythology.

Its willingness means that after the winter passes, the sun in spring rises from the east and brings back new life. Because the word symbolizes rebirth, it was borrowed by Christians to show that Jesus, the giver of life, light and joy, returned to the world again.

Festival significance

On the Easter Sunday, as mentioned above, there is no special retreat, because the vigil on the eve usually extends to the early morning of Sunday. Attend this Sunday daytime retreat. This can be regarded as a continuation celebration of Jesus' resurrection. In order to consider attending the mass, many of the parishioners did not attend the ceremony on the eve of resurrection.

Therefore, when preaching, we should mention the importance of the vigil on the eve, especially explain the resurrection candle placed next to the altar, so that the congregation can understand the various ranges of exceeding the Olympic miracle and its unity. Mass scripture expresses the church's amazement and joy at the resurrection of Jesus.

First of all, the chanting in the church announced the good news of Jesus' resurrection: "The Lord has really risen, Alleluia." Today, the prayers, offerings, communion, and tributes recited by the main priests all emphasize the relationship between transcending the sacred relics and our lives.
