The Essence Of Easter Monday Celebration




In our part of the world, Ghana to be precise, the year if filled with so many holidays. Holiday celebration is one thing that one just can take their mind of. In my own opinion I’d say,


if  a census were to be conducted sorting out the views of individuals as to how many days they would love to have a holiday out their working days I’m certain 90% would say ‘at least two to three holidays in a week’. The other 10% would be those with weird desires”


Easter, is just one of those seasons in the Christian framework where believers around gather in a holy fashion in commemorating the triumphant entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem, His agonal death and the triumphant resurrection from the grave after three days of crucifixion on the mount, Golgotha.


This holy season starts on a Friday, stretching through to Sunday, which marks His resurrection, with the populated name, “Resurrection Sunday”.


In Ghana, the Monday that follows is a national holiday. During this day, many spend time with family members, with the most populated and preferred choice of hangout being the beach.


But no so for the Action Chapel family. With such euphoria feeling the atmosphere as Christian families gathered at one location, Action Chapel International, Spintex Road, with reference to the bible quotation of Psalm 133 (KJV) which declares;


“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!”


It cannot be said that harmony, love, peace and the bond of unity was sensed in the atmosphere. The gathering was filled with fun packed activities. All sort of games were made available for both children and adults to involve themselves in.


From train riding, horse riding, chess, soccer, video games and many more. With an exclusive cultural dance performance straight down the Volta Region.
