PATNA: People celebrated Easter with utmost joy and enthusiasm amid Covid pandemic on Sunday. Saturday vigil, midnight mass and special morning Easter service followed by lighting of candles and singing of hymns marked Easter celebrations at city churches.
According to Father Prem Prakash SJ, the Vicar General of Patna Archdiocese, Easter is the most important festival for followers of Christ. “The Christian faith is based on the resurrection of Christ. Easter is a reminder of the sacrifices Jesus made for humanity. It signifies victory of good over evil,” he said.
As per the New Testament, Jesus died on the cross on Good Friday and came back to life three days later. His resurrection is celebrated on Easter Sunday, which also marks the end of Lent, the 40-day period of fasting which begins on Ash Wednesday. Easter is the celebration of victory over death, a celebration of new life.
