It s Easter outdoors! New York s famous Easter Parade hits the streets of Manhattan while churches across the country hold services outside
Christianity s most joyous feast day was celebrated with the faithful sitting far apart in pews and singing choruses of Hallelujah through face coverings on a second Easter Sunday during the pandemic
At St. Patrick s Cathedral in Manhattan, Easter Mass was held at 50% capacity compared to last year when all Easter services were held virtually and streamed online
The annual Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival, a New York City tradition that dates to the 1870s, was also held virtually on Sunday for the second consecutive year
The faithful removed cowboy hats and bowed their heads for Easter service.
Nearly 40 men, women and children gathered in view of the white cross made of pipe. They sang the Easter hymn, some off-key but all in earnest.
Raise your joys and triumphs high alleluia
Sing ye heavens and earth reply alleluia
