Holy Saturday Celebrations
A Holy Site in
The Saturday of Light, or (Sabt el Nour) in Arabic, is the highlight of the Easter celebrations. On April 3rd and April 10th (For the Greek Orthodox) this year, as in every year, thousands of Christians from all over will flock to Jerusalem to take part in the celebration of "The Light". A designated representative of the Christian Community from each city or village takes back "the light" to their city or village on Saturday afternoon where it is greeted by the drums and music of the Scouts groups, both Christian and Moslem. The streets of the Old City of Jerusalem remain filled with young and old until way past midnight.
