Easter is a Christian holiday to commemorate Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection three days later. It is a combination of Christianity and the so-called pagan customs in ancient times. It is said that the word Easter comes from the name of Eostre, the goddess of dawn in Anglo-Saxon mythology.
Its willingness means that after winter is over, the spring sun rises from the east and brings new life. Because this word symbolizes rebirth, it is borrowed by Christians to mean that Jesus, who gave life, light and joy, returned to this world again.
Festival significance
On Easter Sunday, as mentioned above, there is no special retreat, because the vigil on the eve usually lasts until the early morning of Sunday. Take part in this Sunday's daytime retreat. This can be seen as a continuation celebration of Jesus' resurrection. In order to consider attending mass, many parishioners did not attend the ceremony on the eve of resurrection.
Therefore, when preaching, we should mention the importance of vigil on the eve, especially the resurrection candle placed next to the altar, so that the congregation can understand the range and unity beyond the Olympic miracle. The Mass Scripture expresses the surprise and joy of the church 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, Hallelujah." Today, the prayers, offerings, communion and eulogy recited by the priests all emphasize the relationship between transcending sacred objects and our lives.
