a Sunday in March or April the date varies from year to year. Regarding
Christian holidays in the U.5. Easter is considered to be second only to
Christmas. From religious standpoint, it's preceded by Lent, which begins 40
days before Easter, on Ash Wednesday. The Sunday before Easter is called Palm
Sunday. The Friday before Easter is known as Good Friday and commemorates the
day Jesus died. The Monday directly after Easter is commonly referred to as
Easter Monday. On Easter Sunday, many families go to church, sometimes attending
sunrise services, which is an Easter tradition brought to the U.5. by Protestant
immigrants from Europe. Many families also get together for a large meal on
Easter.
