Easter Festival in Kerala

Introduction about Easter Festival : The Festival of Easter in Kerala is the oldest Christian Festival. The Easter Festival is held with Easter Sunday and the celebrations of the Easter memorialize the central tent of Christianity, the resurgence of Jesus Christ.

Description: The Easter Festival in Kerala is divided into four distinctive time periods. It begins with Lent, which includes 40 days of fasting and preparation for the resurrection of the Christ. The second phase is the Holy Week and it includes the Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The third period is the Octave of Easter, during which, a large number of children are baptized. The fourth phase or the last period is the Easter, which extends over 40 more days. During the Kerala Easter Festival, the ceremony of Lord Jesus Christ's supper and the traditional washing of feet are carried out to stress the love for one another on the Holy Thursday. The ritual of paschal bread is carried out in most of the Christian households. When the dinner is over, the 'cross cake' is brought out and cut into pieces and then distributed among all the family members.
