Holy Saturday is referred to in each Gospel, but Luke 23:55 reads, "As his body was taken away, the women from Galilee followed and saw the tomb where his body was placed. Then they went home and prepared spices and ointments to anoint his body. But by the time they were finished the Sabbath had begun, so they rested as required by the law." Different denominations celebrate Holy Saturday differently in the Church. Roman Catholic churches hold vigils in the evening, while Eastern Orthodox light fires while ringing bells to signify the end of Lent season.
