Easter Monday in Saint Pierre and Miquelon

Easter Monday is a significant public holiday in Saint Pierre and Miquelon, a small French overseas collectivity located near the eastern coast of Canada. The day follows Easter Sunday, which celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ in Christian belief.

History and Traditions:

  • As a predominantly Roman Catholic community, Saint Pierre and Miquelon observes Easter with religious reverence. The history of Easter Monday's observance is deeply intertwined with Christian traditions brought by European settlers, particularly the French.
  • Traditional customs might include attending Mass or special church services to mark the conclusion of the Holy Week and reflect on the significance of Christ's resurrection.

Contemporary Observations:

  • On Easter Monday, families often gather for meals to continue celebrations that begin on Easter Sunday.
  • It's common to have outdoor activities or picnics if the weather permits, as this time also coincides with spring when nature begins to bloom.
  • Since it's a public holiday, schools and most businesses are closed, allowing people to relax and spend time with family and friends.
  • Children may engage in Easter egg hunts that extend from Easter Sunday festivities.

The specific customs can vary from year to year, but generally, Easter Monday in Saint Pierre and Miquelon is a quiet day for relaxation following the more eventful celebrations of Easter Sunday.
