Easter Explained

Man I've lit had this written for so long and I still manage to post it late... Sorry!

Happy Wednesday! Today we'll be learning about Easter in Christianity.

When?
Easter mainly consists of Good Friday (April 14th), Easter Sunday (April 16th), and Easter Monday (April 17th).  It's dates change every year, but these are correct for 2017.

What? 
Easter is arguably the most important Christian holiday, because it pays tribute to the resurrection of Jesus, which is obviously very important in Christianity. Jesus was crucified on the cross on Good Friday, then rose from the dead three days later on Easter Sunday, when his grave was found empty. He was seen again by his disciples on that same day, and this resurrection gives Christians a hope of their own resurrection and a certainty of what they believe.
