Em Memoria

Da Mama e do Papa
(ACC)

Often called the "white-robed apostles of hope", lilies were found growing in the garden of Gethsemane after Christ's agony.

Tradition has it that the beautiful white lilies sprang up where drops of Christ's sweat fell to the ground in his final hours of sorrow and distress.

Christian churches have made Easter lilies a symbol commemorating the Resurrection and the hope of life everlasting.
