Interesting facts:
Easter Eggs: are special eggs that are often given to celebrate Easter. In Christianity, they symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus. Though an egg appears to be like the stone of a tomb, a bird hatches from it with life; similarly, the Easter egg, for Christians, is a reminder that Jesus rose from the grave, and that those who believe will also experience eternal life.
Easter Bunny: The Hare(Bunny) was a popular motive in medieval church art. In ancient times it was widely believed that the hare was a hermaphrodite. The idea that a hare could reproduce without loss of virginity led to an association with the Virgin Mary.

Meaning of easter:

The meaning of Easter is Jesus Christ's victory over death. His resurrection symbolizes the eternal life that is granted to all who believe in Him. The meaning of Easter also symbolizes the complete verification of all that Jesus preached and taught during His three-year ministry. If He had not risen from the dead, if He had merely died and not been resurrected, He would have been considered just another teacher or Rabbi. However, His resurrection changed all that and gave final proof that He was really the Son of God and that He had conquered death once and for all.

JESUS OF NASARETH
My precious Lord Jesus
Who died on Calvary's Tree
I love Thee my Lord
And may it ALWAYS be ...
In pain and sorrow he was nailed
to the cross
But still on His face, He had a loving smile
Please open your heart to Jesus now
for He will make everything worthwhile ...
Lord, I pray, give me the strength
to walk in Thy blessed way
And also to act like a Christian should
today - and every other day ...
My sins were forgiven
as I sat at His feet
Humbly confessing to Him
my sins and my guilt ...
And now I am happy
as happy as can be
For Jesus died on Calvary
To set ME, the greatest sinner free ...
