Palm Sunday celebrates Jesus' arrival in Jerusalem just days before his death. The Bible, which is the book Christians read, says Jesus rode into the city on a donkey. People waved palm leaves and cheered him.
Maundy Thursday is part of the Christian celebration of Easter and marks the night of the Last Supper as told in the Bible. At the Last Supper, Jesus blessed the bread and the wine, sharing them with his disciples. Jesus commanded that people should love one another and encouraged his disciples to eat bread and wine after his death. He then washed the feet of his disciples as an act of kindness.
Good Friday is a day of solemn reflection and worship, commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. Services are often held in the afternoon as the time Jesus is believed to have died is at 3pm. These services are characterized by their simplicity and focus on the suffering of Christ.
Easter is the most important festival in the Christian calendar and is celebrated by people all over the world. It marks the story of Jesus rising from the dead three days after dying on a wooden cross. For many people, Easter is also a time for chocolate eggs, hot cross buns and being with family.
