EASTER WORSHIP
SATURDAY, MARCH 30
6:30 PM - The Great Vigil of Easter (In-Person/Sanctuary and Livestreamed to our Facebook and homepage) (View the Order of Worship)
Easter begins with the Great Vigil on Saturday evening, March 30 at 6:30 p.m., and is one of the most elaborate services in our tradition. The service begins in darkness on Holy Saturday and consists of four parts: the Service of Light (kindling of new fire, lighting the Paschal candle, the Exsultet); the Service of Lessons (readings from the Hebrew Scriptures and prayers); Christian initiation (Holy Baptism); and the Eucharist. Through this liturgy, we join the ancient practice of keeping the Easter feast, beginning in the darkness, and finally light returns. And then the light blazes as we celebrate the coming of the day of His resurrection, with shouts of Alleluia!
