How do we celebrate Easter?
• Easter is preceded by Holy Week. It starts on Palm Sunday, when the Christians go to church with small palm branches in memory of Jesus Christ's entering to Jerusalem.
• On Holy Thursday we take part in the mass, which commemorates Jesus Christ's Last Supper.
• On Good Friday we celebrate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It is very solemn day and we don`t eat meat.
