In Christian churches, the Easter Monday, which also bears the name Monday in the Easter Octave, is held worship to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This day is also usually called Monday Lamb in memory of what happened on the first day after Saturday.
At that time, the angel gave the courage to women who came to the grave at dawn and were scared and worried when they found him empty. “Don’t be afraid,” told them. “He got up from the dead. No one here. But go and tell the disciples,” added.
The last day of Easter holidays is In Slovakia IV surrounding the surrounding countries, known for the gallows, dressing girls and women with water, distributing painted or chocolate eggs or bunnies. But they are folk customs, not church. But there is symbolism – Easter associated with water washing – the holiday of baptism.
In the Greek Catholic Church, the bright Monday is a commanded holiday. Holy liturgies, myrisation or escort around the temple are held. Easter is followed in the Catholic Church by the eight -day octave of Christ’s resurrection, which ends with the Sunday of God’s mercy. It’s the first Sunday after Easter.
The Easter period – the Easter Festival – lasts 50 days. It begins at the Holy (White) Saturday evening and ends on the feast of the Holy Spirit (Turic). Also in the Evangelical Church of Augsburg Confession is the 2th Easter (Easter Monday) Day of Joy of the Lord’s Resurrection. After Easter, there are still five Sundays, which belong to the Easter period of the Church Year.
