You have a second chance to celebrate Easter. That's because Orthodox Christians use a different calendar. So Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church at 30 Huntington Boulevard kicks off its Easter weekend on Friday night, April 25 at 7 p.m.

There will be a procession outside the sanctuary that re-enacts the burial of Jesus, with prayers and hymns led by Father Dean Nastos.

On Saturday, April 26, Holy Trinity will hold a midnight service, "with lots of candles," said Nastos. The congregation will celebrate the break of Lenten fasting at 1:30 a.m. on Sunday, with a meal of lamb and "Greek potato," he said.

On Sunday, April 27, there's an 11 a.m. Easter service at Holy Trinity.
