It’s not just about the chocolate (although we love that too 🍫). Here’s a quick guide to what each Easter weekend day means, with a sprinkle of fun and faith:
Good Friday – The Serious One
Today we remember the ultimate sacrifice, the day Jesus was crucified. It’s a day of reflection, quiet, and gratitude.
Church services are often held to honour this day, and many choose to fast or eat simple meals.
🌿 Take a moment to slow down, breathe, and think about love, sacrifice, and hope.…Or enjoy a braai with the fam
Holy Saturday – The Silent One
This is the “in-between” day – a time of waiting, rest, and hope.
It marks the day Jesus lay in the tomb before rising again.
Traditionally, it’s a quiet, spiritual pause before the big celebration.
Today’s a great day for reflection… or prepping those colourful Easter baskets!
🧺💐Bonus points if you hide some eggs in creative places for the kiddos 🥚👀
Easter Sunday – The Celebration!
He is risen! The day of joy, light, and new life – celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Whether you’re at sunrise service, sharing a special meal, or cheering during the egg hunt, this is a day full of meaning and togetherness.
🕊️ Think hope, renewal, and second chances… all wrapped in love (and maybe a few marshmallow eggs). 🐣💖🍭
Family Monday / Easter Monday – The Chill One
Public holiday vibes!
This day is often about resting after the excitement, enjoying family time, and making the most of the long weekend.
Some people keep traditions going with picnics, park visits, or one last Easter feast.
Tip: it’s also a great time to check in on loved ones, reflect on what Easter means to you, and… finish off all that chocolate 🍫😋
💡Whether you’re celebrating spiritually, culturally, or just enjoying the long weekend – we wish you peace, joy, and lots of laughter this Easter! 🐰💛
