Wishing you the Joy of Easter
The Easter Egg
Where did the colored Easter eggs come from? The egg is a symbol of new life, rebirth, and the celebration of spring. The early Christians describe the egg as a symbol of the resurrection of Jesus.
After a long hard winter with small amounts of food, an egg for Easter was quite a treasure. Later, Christians abstained from eating meat during Lent. Easter was the first chance to enjoy eggs and meat after the long abstinence.
