| Viernes Santo Ortodoxo - Viernes 6 Abril, 2018 Ortodoxa : El huevo rojo es el símbolo de Pascua (o Pascha). Los huevos se pintan el Jueves Santo tras la misa. El pan de pascua se lleva a la iglesia el sábado por la tarde al celebrarse una serie de servicios especiales. El ritual de romper los huevos se desarrolla durante la comida de Pascua. Cada persona selecciona su huevo. La gente por turno choca su huevo contra el de los otros y la persona que se queda con el último huevo sin romper se supone que tendrá un año de buena suerte. Puede que sólo lo celebre la comunidad local ortodoxa.
