On the second day of the Bright Week also known as Bright Tuesday the Orthodox Christians honor Theotokos (the Mother of God). No wedding ceremonies or other celebrations are held during the Bright Week (Pascha Week), because these festive days are dedicated to Christ’s Resurrection. Christians greet one another with Christ is Risen until the Pentecost when the Church was born.
