Easter is this Sunday, marking an important holiday in the Christian faith.
The holiday, which follows a 40-day period known as Lent, celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The date Easter is celebrated changes from year to year because it is one of several “moveable feasts” in the liturgical year, according to the History Channel.
This year, the holiday falls on April 20 and some retail and restaurant chains will be closed on the day in observance of the holiday. That will also be the case for grocery stores.
