Happy Easter 2021: Wishes, Images, Quotes, Status, Messages, and Photos

Contrary to what is believed, Easter was not always the day of Christ’s resurrection. Previously, it was a pagan holiday that signified rebirth and renewal. It was celebrated in early spring. The day honoured Eastre, the pagan Saxon goddess. But things changed when the early missionaries converted the Saxons to Christianity. With this, the meaning of the day changed, and it came to be known as Easter.

Many people who follow the Christian faith refer to the week before Easter as ‘Holy Week’, comprising the days of the Easter Triduum — including Maundy Thursday, commemorating the Maundy and Last Supper — as well as Good Friday, which marks the crucifixion and death of Jesus.

This year, Easter Sunday falls on April 4. As such, we bring you some cards and messages to share with your loved ones today. Even though we are going through a pandemic, we can still spread hope and joy.
