The wait is over! Tonight at Saint John’s, we celebrate the Great Vigil of Easter, the pinnacle of the Church year. This is the night we pass from the darkness of death into the glorious light of the Resurrection.

Experience the ancient beauty and joy of the most significant liturgy in the Christian tradition.

What to Expect:

• The Service of Light: We begin in darkness, lighting the New Fire and the Paschal Candle, symbolizing Christ as the Light of the World.

• The Liturgy of the Word: We journey through the history of salvation, hearing the stories of God’s faithfulness from the beginning of time.

• The Renewal of Baptismal Vows: We celebrate our own rebirth in Christ through the waters of baptism.

• The First Eucharist of Easter: With the joyful shout of "Alleluia!", we celebrate the Risen Lord at the altar for the first time this season!
