Easter Sunday and Easter Monday are both part of the Christian Easter celebration but mark different moments.

Easter Sunday commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ and is the most important day in the Christian calendar, observed with church services and celebrations.

Easter Monday follows as a public holiday in many countries, including Kenya, offering time for rest and family gatherings.

While Easter Sunday is religiously significant, Easter Monday is largely cultural and social, extending the holiday period.

Together, they form a long weekend that blends worship, reflection, and leisure activities.
