Hundreds of believers celebrate Easter in Gjirokastra

Orthodox believers in Gjirokastra celebrated the Resurrection of Christ yesterday evening.

Hundreds of believers have gathered in the Cathedral, congratulating each other: "Christ is Risen."

The church bell rang loudly at the moment when the hands of the clock marked the arrival of a new day and symbolically the Resurrection of Christ.

The mass, organized by local Orthodox clergy in the outdoor spaces of the Cathedral, was attended by numerous believers who rushed to light candles as a sign of good luck for the revival of a new era.

Greetings from citizens

"I wish all believers everywhere good health and all the opportunities they have to do their best."

"Best wishes, Christ is Risen, prosperity to the entire Christian community"

"Christ rose on Easter, for us Orthodox, it is one of the most significant days today and we wish all Albanians well-being"

The initial Orthodox ceremonies at the Church of the Resurrection of Christ began on Good Friday in commemoration of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, where many believers prayed for more peace, goodness and prosperity, for more love among people.

Orthodox Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the beginning of spring, or the first Sunday after the first full moon of the month. According to the biblical interpretation, with the resurrection of Christ, the transition from death to life occurs from Good Friday when Jesus Christ dies to Easter Sunday when he is resurrected./ CNA
