Easter celebration may different in every culture, every country. In my town, Tembagapura we have “Easter Dawn”. At 3.30 am the people go the church, after some preparation and prayer, at 5.30 the denominations start marching to the central of the town. They hold burning torch and sing. When they reach the central of the town, Easter Sunrise Service is given until the sun really rise then people will have breakfast and the children start to find Easter egg.
