      New York, NY (PRWEB) April 09, 2014 -- Holy Week is fast approaching as one of the most widely celebrated and important religious observances in the world and Pure Minutes wants to help our users stay connected.

      Holy Week takes place on the last week of Lent, the week before Easter, and includes religious holidays including the Friday of Sorrows, Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. The event is also one of the sacred in Mexico and almost all towns and cities in the country hold a form of public observance during the two-week period.

      Holy Week takes place on the last week of Lent, the week before Easter, and includes religious holidays including the Friday of Sorrows, Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday.

      The Latin American airwaves are inundated with movies, documentaries, and other shows focused on the holy event and other topics related to the Catholic Faith. The United States traditions surrounding Easter have made few inroads in Mexico, with icons such as the Easter Bunny and events such as Easter Egg Hunts limited to areas bordering the United States.

      Holy Week celebrations begin on Palm Sunday all over Spain as people enjoy a week of holidays for traveling and vacation. Landmark towns such as Seville, Cordoba and Granada celebrate the week by having the statue of Mary, the Mother of Jesus and Jesus on the cross carried, through the centre of the town on enormous stretchers.

      Street fairs are the word of the day as large gatherings, or “antojitos” (roughly translated as Mexican street food or snacks), are a cultural tradition most associated with the holiday. Now users can stay connected with family or friends in the Philippines, Spain, Latin America, Mexico, and around the world with Pure Minutes during this joyous occasion without having to spend a fortune.

      A prepaid calling card was once considered the cheapest and most convenient option to make international phone calls however it often required wading through complicated menus and PIN numbers. Users were overwhelmed by the amount of international dialing plans made available to them but times have changed and making low cost international calls has never been easier than with Pure Minutes.

      (Pure Minutes) provides a low-cost international calling solution that works with any phone number, regardless of the current provider even when renting a temporary phone while overseas. This means that a user can enjoy the benefits of low international rates without needing to change their current landline or mobile cell phone service provider. For a limited time Pure Minutes is extending an offer to receive a $3 bonus with the very first online purchase.

      Pinless calling cards are convenient way to save money and keep in touch with loved ones. Pure Minutes offers some of the cheapest international phone plans so users can confidently make affordable phone calls to overseas destinations without emptying their wallets. The revolutionary Pure Minutes system instantly recognizes subscribers through an automatic caller identification which eliminates the need for complicated PIN numbers typically found on calling cards. In fact, Pure Minutes has eliminated the need for calling cards altogether. With rates as low as 1.5 cents to Mexico, 2.7 cents to Brazil, and 1.8 cents to India customers will never go over budget again.
