This picture was taken of just one lawn decoration in front of a house on East 19 St between Voorhies Avenue and Jerome Avenue.

According to the [Holidays on the Net website](http://www.holidays.net/easter/bunny1.htm?ref=bklyner.com), the most important holiday for Christians became associated with rabbits and hares, since they were very fertile animals. That sense of fertility offered a symbol of the new life that Jesus Christ’s resurrection offered to the world.

As a home to quite a few Christians, Catholic and Protestants, alike, Sheepshead Bay has been known not just as a multi-ethnic place, but a multi-denominational one, as well. For those of you who would like to find a place to worship or experience a little of this Christian holy day, you can find numerous houses of worship in our area.
