What is Orthodox Easter?

Orthodox Easter is the holiest day on the Christian calendar for Orthodox Christians in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. It is a time of great significance and celebration, marking the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The holiday is observed with various religious services, traditions, and festivities that differ from those of Western Easter.

The Orthodox Christian holiday explained

Orthodox Easter falls on a different date each year, as it is based on the Julian calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar. This year, Orthodox Easter falls on Sunday, and it is a time for Orthodox Christians to come together to worship, reflect, and rejoice in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is a time of renewal, hope, and spiritual growth for believers around the world.
