On Easter morning, many Christians gather before dawn to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus as the sun rises. This tradition, known as the Easter sunrise service, is a significant event for Christians worldwide. This year, Easter Sunday falls on March 31, determined by a calendar calculation involving the moon.
The Easter sunrise service holds biblical symbolism, reflecting the story of the women followers of Jesus who discovered his empty tomb at dawn. This tradition has been upheld for nearly 300 years by the Moravian Church, one of the oldest Protestant denominations.
