Reference to Easter foreshadowing?

Hi, I am new - hope I am posting correctly.

Did anyone else notice the references to Hogwarts' "Easter break" in
Book 7? I know they had Christmas break in Harry's world, celebrated
in a purely secular way (until the Muggles' Christmas Eve at church
also new in 7) - but this was the first time I noticed anything about
Easter.

Also, marking Mad Eye's "grave" for his magical eye with a cross... I
was startled by it when I read that part.

Wondering if the pseudo Christian references were a foreshadowing for
Harry's self-sacrifice and semi-resurrection? If so, all those who
have been calling for Harry Potter boycotts etc. on account of
wizardry and anti-Christianity are going to have some rethinking to do!
