Ancient Easter Tradition Re-emerges in Some Two River Towns
For many Two Rivers residents, spring can be a very spiritual season. In the Jewish faith, it means remembering the Passover feast before Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt. For Muslims, Ramadan is a holy time devoted to prayer, fasting and almsgiving to the poor. In the Hindu faith, spring means Holi, a festival of colors that celebrates the triumph of good over evil. And then there is Easter, the holiest time of the year for Christians during which they recognize the death and resurrection of Jesus.
