April Holidays

"Popular April holidays celebrate renewal, rebirth, and the glory of springtime in full bloom."

Each Easter, Christians celebrate the life and resurrection of Jesus ... Fat Tuesday, the 40 days of Lent, Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday. Easter is the most popular of April holidays.

People of all denominations and faiths can enjoy the symbols of Easter as a spring festival ...

  • egg hunts with their children
  • giving, sharing, and eating chocolate rabbits and marshmallow chicks
  • rejoicing in the promise of a new Spring

In keeping with the spirit of resurrection is Earth Day, when we promote preservation of our beautiful land, forests, and waters by planting a tree, or cleaning a park or beach.

Also among April holidays ... we appreciate the importance of the administrative assistants, receptionists, and secretaries we work with daily.
