The Resurrection
Saturday 7th April 2007
 
This night always seems to have something special during Greek Easter. A church service precedes the blackout from which light is born. "Christ has risen" is heard in whispers around the church yard. One candle from the Papas, lights each candle in the congregation until nothing but candles light up the night, well almost. As last year, there was a wind too strong to keep the candles lit past the church doorway.
 
 
 
 
A small crowd in Kioni for the Resurrection. A stark contrast to the previous night when the village was brimming with life for the death of Judas.
