Easter Mass
Spring Christian celebration
Easter Mass is the principal Christian church service celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, observed on Easter Sunday.
It marks the most important day in the Christian liturgical calendar, typically featuring special music, flowers, and ceremonies not present in ordinary services.
The cathedral was packed for Easter Mass.
The term is most common in Catholic contexts, though similar celebratory services occur across Christian denominations under various names.
