DESCRIPTION:This service remembers the experiences of the first women to g
 o to the tomb to look after the crucified Christ and the wonderful surpris
 e they found. It is a time of bringing new light into our church and our l
 ives\, and of cleansing ourselves and rededicating ourselves to our risen 
 Saviour. \nWe begin our Easter Vigil Service in the churchyard at 06:30\, 
 lighting the New Fire and our Paschal Candle for the coming year. As we pr
 ocess into church lighting candles for one another we see the church in th
 e low light of dawn and we commence our readings from the whole Creation S
 tory. As we reach the Gospel\, the lights are turned on\, the music begins
 \, and we greet each other with joy in the risen Christ. \nWe process to t
 he font to bless the waters and renew our baptismal vows\, concluding with
  the First Eucharist of Easter. This is a joyful and moving service.
