The Vinh Diocese celebrated Easter 2019.

During the Easter season, according to Canon Law, Catholic believers, instead of participating in festivities, entertainment, and ostentatious displays, will make a pilgrimage to the Via Dolorosa in the Old City of Jerusalem to revisit the path of suffering where Jesus carried the cross to Calvary, in order to commemorate Jesus' Passion.
