It is a day of celebration\, Day of the Dead. Unlike other memorials of the d eparted as practiced in the Syriac Church\, the mood of Thnahto is not som ber\, rather is it very jovial. On this day\, Syriac families enter the ce meteries and place candles\, flowers\, and other decorations around the gr ave. The priest and deacons arrive to offer incense at each grave. While a waiting the priest to come\, Syriac families have a picnic upon or adjacen t to the graves of their deceased loved ones. They share chocolates and tr eats\, eat freshly baked bread\, drink coffee and participate in playing f olk games. One such game involves knocking the coloured and decorated East er Eggs against each other.Much in the same way that on Sunday the living parish members celebrate Easter\, Thnahto provides an opportunity for the reposed to join in on the festivities. It is a reminder that the Church is comprised of both the quick and dead. Thnahto further emphasizes the vict orious nature of the Feast of the Resurrection\, as a triumph of the etern al soul against the temporal implications of physical death.Even the dead hearken to hear Christ is Risen\, and to boldly respond that indeed He is Risen!Reference: 'The Construction of Equality: Syriac Immigration and the Swedish City' and 'Easter Monday (Thnahto): Syriacs gather at the cemeter ies of Tur Abdin'Commemorated annually on the Monday after Easter.
