On May 4, Orthodox believers have Great Saturday. This day of Holy Week is dedicated to the memory of the burial and stay in the tomb of the body of Jesus Christ and his descent into hell.
It is a day of silence, a time for spiritual purification and obedience. The Orthodox mentally make the path that the Savior overcame before he ascended Golgotha. People bring the Easter meal - cakes and dyed eggs - to the churches.
