Easter/Passover Statistics
In Christianity Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Passover
is the celebration of the Israelites being freed from slavery. Easter is a time
to celebrate your faith, as well as the love of your family. According to
Christian legend, carnations sprouted from the ground where Mary's tears fell as
she wept at the foot of the cross where Jesus died, and therefore are associated
with a mother's undying love. The white lily is strongly linked with Mary
throughout art history, symbolizing her virginity, purity, and majesty.
