Introduction to the meaning of Lent
The document discusses the Paschal Mystery, which refers to the suffering, death, burial, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ and the redemption of humanity. It notes that Lent, Easter, Ascension, and Pentecost are all part of the Paschal Mystery timeline spanning 40 days after Easter and 50 days total. The Paschal Mystery draws from the Hebrew word for Passover and represents Jesus Christ's passing over from death to life.
Announcements, 12/26/10
The document announces worship services in the sanctuary beginning January 2nd, 2011. It also notes that baptisms will take place on Sunday, January 2nd and instructs people to contact Pastor Warren.
Easter
Easter is the oldest and most important Christian feast commemorating Jesus Christ's resurrection. Traditionally, Easter baskets contained foods like eggs, bread, meat and an Easter lamb that symbolized new life, Jesus as the bread of life, Jesus as the sacrificial lamb, and the end of fasting respectively. Other foods and their symbols included horseradish (overcoming Christ's bitter passion), salt (life, protection and purity), and pepper (the bitter herbs Jews used at Passover).
Reactions To The Resurrection
The document argues that Easter is a tradition that originated from pagan practices rather than from God or the Bible. It notes that the Council of Nicea set the date for Easter in 325 AD based on pagan solar and lunar calendars rather than biblical authority. The document claims there is no mention of Easter in the New Testament and that true worship must be authorized by scripture alone. It encourages focusing on the true meaning and purpose of Christ's resurrection rather than the tradition of Easter.

Popular Easter traditions in Hungary have a mixture of pagan and Christian customs observed parallel to Catholic ceremonies. One pagan custom involves women and girls being sprinkled with well water for fertility. Now it is done symbolically with perfume. As thanks, women offer painted Easter eggs with local motifs. The annual Christian commemoration celebrates the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ, which is commemorated each year on the Sunday after the first full moon of spring. A legend says a rabbit witnessed Jesus' resurrection from the tomb and was chosen to communicate the good news to children by giving painted eggs and chocolate eggs. Not all Easter treats are made of chocolate.
