In the life story of Jesus there is a story about the atonement of human sins. Jesus was crucified to atone for the sins of men and then rose up. The resurrection was considered a victory and celebrated as the Passover. Since then, tradition of Passover has been known as the day of celebration of Liberation for Catholics. In this celebration, there are a series of events of communication. This research is motivated by religious traditions and culture which are often only considered a ceremony. This study aims to find out the communicative situations, communicative events and communicative acts of Passover Night celebration. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with an ethnographic approach. The result shows that there are so many symbols or meanings from each part on the ceremony. The symbols and their meaning can be found from interviewing some experts and conducting a direct observation of the ceremony.

Summary
Religion is a belief system that regulates values, morals, and bridges one’s relationship with God. Each religion has a narrative or symbol that becomes its own identity. Religion is not something that is doctrinal or ideological in nature, and appears in tangible forms in daily life. In this context religion is often seen as part of culture [1]. According to Hofstede (1994) in Zakiah, there are four concepts in the manifestation of culture in general, namely: symbols, heroism, values and ritual activities. Symbols can be in the form of images, meaningful objects, words, or hand movements that can only be understood by group members in the culture concerned [2]
