Easter Eve.
Easter is a moveable feast and the Easter Sunday is the first
Sunday following full moon on or after the
spring equinox.
Palm Sunday Domenica delle Palme
It’s the last Sunday before Easter. It commemorates Jesus’triumphal entry in
Jerusalem.In Italy we celebrate it with processions of worshipers carrying blessed palms or
olive branches.These are then placed at the entrance of houses or above
beds until the following year’s Palm Sunday
