🌸 Buona Pasqua! 🌸 Easter in Italy and Italian-American homes blends faith, family, and food—from tortellini in brodo and roasted lamb to Colomba di Pasqua and pastiera napoletana. Churches, processions, and festive meals keep centuries-old traditions alive. #BuonaPasqua

Michelangelo’s Pietà, located in St. Peter’s Basilica, captures the moment when Jesus, taken down from the cross, is given to his mother Mary For God so loved the world that he gave his one & only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life John 3:16

The Last Supper was a mural completed by Leonardo da Vinci. This painting depicts the shock & horror of the twelve disciples upon learning that one amongst themselves was going to betray Jesus Christ. The work was commissioned in 1494 by Ludovico Sforza, who was the Duke of Milan

On Il pesce d’aprile or April Fools’ Day, the oldest joke in Italy was the promise by Buoncompagno from Florence in the XIII century to fly over Bologna with the machine he invented. The whole town gathered to see the flight, which actually never took place. Pesce d’aprile!

🇮🇹 Una Storia Segreta 🇺🇸 During WWII, under FDR, 600K Italians were classified as enemy aliens in the US & faced internment, surveillance & violations of their civil liberties, an overlooked chapter in our nation’s history. The classification was removed on Columbus Day 1942.

A key Easter tradition of Italian Americans in NYC is rooted in the kitchen where we prepare foods with religious symbolism. Among them is Pane di Pasqua, an Easter bread decorated with colored eggs, representing the tomb and resurrection.

Wishing a blessed Palm Sunday to Christians across NYC. In italy, while palm branches are used, olive branches are more common in many parts of the country, as they are more readily available and symbolize peace. Wishing all a peaceful start to the most Holy Week. 🙏✝️

In a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain, moments like this remind us where true strength lies in faith, unity and prayer. Through the Rosary, we are drawn closer to Mary, Mother of Jesus,our Blessed Mother who always leads us to her Son. She is a source of comfort and unwavering love in times when the world needs it most. Let this incredible outpouring of prayer be a reminder that our faith is alive, our future is strong, and the Rosary remains as powerful today as ever. #MotherMary #ChristIsKing netny.tv/episodes/curre…
