St Andrew’s Service of Light – Online with 'Zoom'

for 1 hour
St Andrew
Oxhill Road Handsworth Birmingham, B21 9RE, United Kingdom

Holy Saturday is the last day of Holy Week and ends the season of Lent. Easter vigil services in the United Kingdom on Holy Saturday can be traced back to the early years of Christianity during the time of the Roman empire. One tradition that still has symbolic significance today is lighting candles during the Easter vigil services. Please have a candle ready as we welcome Christ’s ‘New Light’ in to our lives.
