WHAT IS EASTER?

EASTER:It is the annual Christian commemoration of the Passion of Christ, that is, the entrance to Jerusalem, the Last Supper, the Stations of the Cross, the death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth. It is the sixth and last week of Lent from Palm Sunday to sunset on Holy Thursday, between sunset on Holy Thursday to Easter Sunday, called the Easter Triduum. Therefore, it is a period of intense liturgical activity within the various Christian confessions. It begins with Palm Sunday and ends on Easter Sunday, although its celebration usually begins in various places on the previous Friday (Friday of Sorrows).
