Description: | Musa tells us that during Passion Week, some villagers would sleep in the church. There would also be 3-4 people waking up ca 3am to go and knock on the doors of all houses to wake them up for prayers. Outsiders would visit the village on Easter, and they would be given presents. The children of the village would also visit every house in the village and they would be given eggs and sweets. They would then play egg games with each other. | |
