This weekend marks two major religious celebrations: Passover for Judaism and the end of Holy Week culminating in Easter Sunday. Both of these holidays were not top of mind for me. I would describe myself as someone who doesn’t believe in organized religion and a lapsed Catholic. I attended a Catholic elementary school and served as an altar girl for our weekly Friday masses. Throughout high school, I threw all of my spare time and energy outside of band and school in my church activities: Bible study, choir, community services and weekend and summer retreats.
