Easter Sunday is coming on April 24th this year.
According to the Canonical gospels, Jesus rose from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion. His resurrection is celebrated on Easter Day or Easter Sunday.
How to work out the date of Easter Day?
The date of Easter Sunday changes every year. It's really a long, long history to talk about the different determining rules.
I found an easy way for you who want to compute the date by yourselves as a fun.
- Divide the year number by 19:
2009/19=105.73 - Multiple the number before the decimal point by 19 (105 for 2009):
105x19=1995 - Then subtract the result from Step 2 from the year number:
2009-1995=14 - Add 1: 14+1=15
- Look up the 'Golden Number' in the following table (15 for 2009!).
Easter is on the first Sunday after the date in the table.
In 2009 Easter is on April 12th, so it works!
| Golden Number | Date | Golden Number | Date | Golden Number | Date |
| 0 | March 27 | 7 | April 8 | 14 | March 22 |
| 1 | April 14 | 8 | March 28 | 15 | April 10 |
| 2 | April 3 | 9 | April 16 | 16 | March 30 |
| 3 | March 23 | 10 | April 5 | 17 | April 17 |
| 4 | April 11 | 11 | March 25 | 18 | April 7 |
| 5 | March 31 | 12 | April 13 | 19 | March 27 |
| 6 | April 18 | 13 | April 2 | / | / |
