Edmonton is no exception, as religious leaders look to livestreams and online resources to ensure the safety of their communities as they tend to their spiritual needs. Easter weekend — Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday — is one of the high marks of the Christian spiritual calendar, often bringing out even the less observant members of the faith. "None of those celebrations are going to have any congregations," Catholic Archdiocese of Edmonton spokesperson Lorraine Turchansky said in an interview with Edmonton AM on Thursday. Schwarzman said normally members would gather in large groups and read the Haggadah text telling the story of the exodus. With public worship halted, Schwarzman started supplying members with online resources — including for the seder.
