| In some countries, Easter Monday is a government recognized holiday. Wikipedia defines Easter Monday as - Easter Monday is the day after Easter Sunday and is celebrated as a holiday in some largely Christian cultures, especially Roman Catholic cultures.
Formerly, the post-Easter festivities involved a week of secular celebration, but this was reduced to one day in the 19th century. Events include egg rolling competitions and, in predominantly Roman Catholic countries, dousing other people with water which, at one time, had been holy water blessed the day before at Easter Sunday Mass and carried home to bless the house and food.
Easter Monday in the Roman Catholic liturgical calendar is the second day of the octave of Easter Week.
In the Eastern Catholic Byzantine Rite and the Eastern Orthodox Church, Easter Monday is called Bright Monday.For more information on Easter Monday, click here! | |
