Easter in Georgia
03/08/2019
Several days starting from Easter Sunday greet each other saying the following phrase „ქრისტე აღსდგა“(kriste agsdga) to which the response is „ჭეშმარიტად“ (tcheshmaritad) – “Christ had risen” and “Indeed” in English.
Normally, the most devout Orthodox Christians go to church the night before Easter and stay at the church until late the next morning when a supra is laid out for breaking the fast.
Two important elements of Easter preparation are dying eggs red on Good Friday and baking Easter Bread, Paska.
Eggs are smashed on Easter morning, and a candle is usually lit on the Paska during the first meal of Easter Sunday.
