invented secular excuse to commemorate a CHRISTIAN holiday (celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, three days after his crucifixion) in order for government, civil service & union employees to get paid for NOT going to work!!!!! However; this is just another link ~ in the long string of chains strung by our “politically correct” & elected government & union biased officials which continually promotes the rise of liberal Secularism in America! SICKENING!!!!

The night before His death, Jesus visited a garden called Gethsemane, just east of the walls of Jerusalem. Leaving His Apostles at the edge of the garden, He trod through the dewy grass and past gnarled olive trees, walking farther inward.
He had prepared His entire life for this moment, carefully following His Father’s commands in every step of His life, in every breath He took. Now the time had come. Even as He prayed, “Father, if it be thy will, remove this cup from me,” He accepted that this was His burden, and His alone, to bear. He was the only one who could free us from the awful consequences of our sins.
In the coolness of the night, He knelt and began to pray. Though we don’t fully understand how, He willingly took upon Himself our sins and sorrows, suffering in body and spirit for every sin, every sadness, every mistake and imperfection of every single one of us. The pain that came was crushing, exquisite and infinite. Blood oozed from His pores as this impossibly heavy weight caused Him to tremble with pain.
