Great Thursday - closer to Easter

in #eastger6 years ago (edited)

Today Russian Orthodox Church celebrates Great Thursday in remembrance of Last Supper which Christ The Lord shared with His disciples. Churches are full of people, who take part in Eucharist, taking Holy Communion. Getting ready for Easter Sunday people cook many special traditional Easter dishes which they will take to be blessed to church on Saturday. One of these dishes is Kulich (the famous Easter cake, which is not really a cake but a special recipe made sweet bread). This year I ordered my Kulich to be made by a great lady, and I received my beautiful kuliches yesterday, take a look!
