CATHOLIC NEWS & NOTES ROMAN CATHOLIC BOY MEETS GIRL:

Easter is the feast commemorating Christ's Resurrection from the dead. After the introduction of Christianity sinong Ger- manie nations, the name Easter, denoting spring, was retained to designate the festival of the Resurrection. With other nations the term commonly used is the Greco-Latin word Pascha, deriv- ed from the Hebrew word pasch (passover). In this way, the Christian feast is linked with the ancient Hebrew festival of the Passover, not arbitrarily, since the Death and Resurrection of Christ coincided with a particular Jewish Pasch, and because In the designs of God there was a connexion between the two in- cidents, the deliverance of the Jews, being 蹑 symbol of the salvation of mankind.
