Should Christians observe Easter Week

[Tskjesusfreak]

Should Easter Week from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday take a week off of normal economic activity? So taking the whole week off from normal work in observing Easter Week? And even limiting economic activity that makes a person work or at least do as minimal as possible.

Example is, getting gas from the pump vs gas inside the gas station. If one gets gas from the pump then they will reduce the need for a person working or less people working at the gas station compared to going inside.

I find fasts that are like boycotts are a personal choice.

I'm just throwing it out there as a potential discussion because it would make a bold witness for the Gospel. That Easter is so important that Christians are willing to take time off either by sacrificing vacation days or actual money (not working) to observe Easter Week.

As a chanter, I start taking time off from Holy Wednesday. I only miss 2 of the 17 services of Holy Week.

Christians should be observing Easter week especially Good Friday and Easter Sunday. They are the two most important days of the year (including more important than Christmas).

I haven't worked since I was sixteen but employers should give Christians Easter week off. If I remember my boss all those years ago gave Christian employees Easter week off. It's against the constitution to deny a Christian their right to observe Easter week.
