Easter THEME |
 |
Though originally a pagan ceremony, the Easter story is now at the heart of Christianity, and the date of Easter changes each year. Several other Christian festivals are dated according to the reference date of Easter. Easter commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It’s the most important of all Christian festivals, and the one celebrated with the greatest joy.
Sentenced to death, on Good Friday, Jesus Christ was hanged upon a cross, between two convicted thieves, and upon the wooden cross, he died. His body was taken down from the cross, and buried in a cave. The tomb was guarded, and an enormous stone was put over the entrance, so that no one could steal his body.
On the Sunday following his crucifixion and death, some women visited the grave, and found that the stone had been moved, and that the tomb was empty. Jesus himself was seen that day, and for days afterwards by many people. His followers realized that God had raised Jesus from the dead.
On Easter, Churches are filled with flowers, and there are special hymns and songs, but not all Easter customs are Christian. Customs like the Easter Bunny are Pagan in origin. In ancient times, the Saxons celebrated the return of spring with a festival honoring their goddess of offspring and of springtime, Easter. When the second-century Christian missionaries encountered the tribes of the north with their pagan celebrations, they converted them to Christianity, in a secretive and round about manner. It would have been suicide for the very early Christian converts to celebrate their holy days in ways that didn’t coincide with celebrations that already existed. To save lives, the missionaries spread their religious messages slowly throughout the populations by allowing them to continue to celebrate pagan feasts, but doing so in a Christian manner.
Coincidentally, the pagan festival of Easter occurred at the same time of year as the Christian observance of the Resurrection of Christ. Because of that, it made sense, to alter the festival to make it a Christian celebration, as converts were slowly won over. The early name, Eastre, was eventually changed to its modern spelling, Easter.

Easter Cake Ideas
For an Easter theme cake start with the choice of cake. Take for example doing a Pineapple Cheesecake as cake of choice. Just need together the needed ingredients when picking up the party supplies. Here is the list of what is needed; 8 ounce package of cream cheese, ½ cup of white sugar, 15 ounces of crushed pineapple that has been drained, 1 ¾ cups of frozen whipped topping that needs to be thawed and a 9-inch prepared graham cracker crust. With all the ingredients now in place it is time to take a look at the directions to make the cake.
Directions for making a Easter theme cake, start by getting a large mixing bowl to work with. Next mix in the cream cheese and sugar, adding 1 can of pineapple and whipped topping to the mixture. This will need to be mixed up until it is nice and smooth. Once this is prepared, then pour the mixture into the pie crust and top with more pineapple. For the next 2 hours cover and chill the cake. Once done remove and placed onto a large platter, surround the cake with Easter candies for color.
