Easter is one of the most important Christian holiday in Romania. It is the Resurrection from the dead of Jesus Christ.

During The Lent/Easter fasting, Christians don’t have to eat too much, they are not allowed to eat meat, cheese, eggs, milk. They have to have an honest living.

They are not allowed to tell lies or nasty words, to do unfair things, to steal, etc.

People go to church and confess. Children go with their parents, grandparents, but also with their teachers. They talk about the importance and the significance of this great holiday.

The priest anoints the children.

The last Sunday in the Lent, before the Passion Week, is Palm Sunday. People go to church and bring home anointed willow twigs. It is good to have such twigs from Palm Sunday at home because they are used for healing.
