Christians Worldwide Prepare for Easter Sunrise Services on March 31

Easter sunrise services, a tradition with deep roots in Christian faith, will be observed globally, reflecting the belief in Jesus' resurrection.

Easter Sunday, observed on March 31 this year, sees Christians worldwide participating in sunrise services to celebrate Jesus' resurrection.
The tradition of Easter sunrise services, dating back to 1732 with the Moravian Church, symbolizes the biblical account of Jesus' empty tomb discovered at dawn.
Easter's date varies annually, falling on the first Sunday after the Paschal full moon, which occurs on or after the spring equinox.
Moravian sunrise services, known for their trombone choirs and silent processions, draw thousands and have spread globally from their origins in Germany.
Other Christian denominations also hold Easter vigils and services, incorporating music, scripture reading, and prayer to mark the occasion.
