FYI: Easter is celebrated the first Sunday following the full moon after the Equinox (or 1st day of spring). This is not true when the full moon is on the Saturday after the Equinox, then Easter isn't celebrated that Sunday but the following week.
I was caught off guard this year that Easter was so early when the news was showing footage of the celebration of Fat Tuesday (New Orleans Mardi Gras), which is always the day before Ash Wednesday. (Don't ask me why that is... I don't know much about Mardi Gras). The Equinox was on Thurs. March 20th (can be the 21st too, but 2008 was the 20th), and the full moon was on Good Friday. So cool!
This is such a rare event that the next time this will happen isn't until 2160, and the last time Easter was this early in the spring was way back in 1913. Amazing! I consider myself to be blessed to be alive to see this.
The earliest that Easter can be celebrated is March 20th, and that hasn't happened since 1818 and won't happen again until 2285 !!!!
WHATEVER MAY BE YOUR TASK, WORK AT IT HEARTILY FOR THE LORD AND NOT FOR MEN, KNOWING THAT IT IS FROM THE LORD THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE THE INHERITANCE WHICH IS YOUR REWARD..COLOSSIANS 3:23
