a sunday between march 22 and april 25
the meaning of many different customs observed during easter sunday have been buried with time their origins lie in prechristian religions and christianity all in some way or another are a salute to spring marking rebirth the white easter lily has come to capture the glory of the holiday the word easter is named after eastre the anglosaxon goddess of spring a festival was held in her honor every year at the vernal equinox (春分)
people celebrate the holiday according to their beliefs and their religious denominations (命名) christians commemorate good friday as the day that jesus christ died and easter sunday as the day that he was resurrected (复活) protestant settlers brought the custom of a sunrise service a religious gathering at dawn to the united states
this year easter will be celebrated on sunday april 11 xx on easter sunday children wake up to find that the easter bunny has left them baskets of candy he has also hidden the eggs that they decorated earlier that week children hunt for the eggs all around the house neighborhoods and organizations hold easter egg hunts and the child who finds the most eggs wins a prize
the easter bunny is a rabbitspirit long ago he was called the easter hare hares and rabbits have frequent multiple births so they became a symbol of fertility the custom of an easter egg hunt began because children believed that hares laid eggs in the grass the romans believed that all life comes from an egg christians consider eggs to be the seed of life and so they are symbolic of the resurrection of jesus christ
why we dye or color and decorate eggs is not certain in ancient egypt greece rome and persia eggs were dyed for spring festivals in medieval europe beautifully decorated eggs were given as gifts
egg rolling
in england germany and some other countries children rolled eggs down hills on easter morning a game which has been connected to the rolling away of the rock from jesus christ's tomb when he was resurrected british settlers brought this custom to the new world
in the united states in the early nineteenth century dolly madison the wife of the fourth american president organized an egg roll in washington dc she had been told that egyptian children used to roll eggs against the pyramids so she invited the children of washington to roll hardboiled eggs down the hilly lawn of the new capitol building the custom continued except for the years during the civil war in 1880 the first lady invited children to the white house for the egg roll because officials had complained that they were ruining the capitol lawn it has been held there ever since then only canceled during times of war the event has grown and today easter monday is the only day of the year when tourists are allowed to wander over the white house lawn the wife of the president sponsors it for the children of the entire country the egg rolling event is open to children twelve years old and under adults are allowed only when accompanied by children
traditionally many celebrants (司仪神父) bought new clothes for easter which they wore to church after church services everyone went for a walk around the town this led to the american custom of easter parades all over the country perhaps the most famous is along fifth avenue in new york city
good friday is a federal holiday in 16 states and many schools and businesses throughout the us are closed on this friday
