Sorry for the delayed response. I don’t get any automatic notification of new comments here, so it us up to me to check 😉

I have a number of Armenian co-workers who are part of the Eastern Orthodox tradition. After fasting during Lent, the feast on Pascha becomes an especially joyful time for them. But they lament that their children don’t follow the ancient tradition.

At any rate, thanks for the insights and I look forward to reading more posts from you in the future!

I was just wondering what is the “tomb” you’re talking about for the Pascal celebration?

(it’s so weird not being able to upvote or say “+1, nice answer”)
