Orthodox Christians on 27 and 28 April mark the Easter of the Gentle.
The Easter of the Gentle takes place on week after the Easter. On this occasion, believers visit the graves of their loved ones, tidy them up and priests conduct memorial services, after which relatives offer alms for the souls of the dead.
