Ancient Rites Re enacted Amid Global Easter Passover Observances
The Easter and Passover rites were observed worldwide with hopes for peace and nuclear restraint. Pope Pius XII urged an international ban on atomic and hydrogen bombs, while London’s Archbishop Geoffrey Fisher echoed calls to end the bomb threat. Easter services occurred across Jerusalem, with Protestants and Catholics worshipping separately, Muslims celebrating Nabi Musa in Palestine, and King Hussein appealing to Americans to aid Palestinian Arabs uprooted by the conflict. In the U S, large crowds filled major churches and President Eisenhower marked Easter with family time and church attendance.
