Worship for Easter Vigil

The Great Vigil of Easter

📃 Worship Guide

ℹ️ We gather outside around a bonfire, as we light the Paschal. After processing inside, we gather in the dimness of the evening to hear stories of our faith before transitioning to the first Easter eucharist, and the triumphant proclamation that "Chris is risen indeed, Alleluia!"

This is the night of salvation! At the Vigil of Easter, we gather around fire, word, water, bread, and wine, proclaiming through story and song that ours is a God who continuously brings life out of death. On this night we experience again the heart of God’s baptismal promise and the center of our faith: we are claimed and cleansed, renewed in the death and resurrection of Christ. We gather with all the saints of every time and place to celebrate the good news: Christ is risen indeed! Alleluia!
